General University of Maine Publications

The Task Force on Safe Schools, a regional collaborative of education and community leaders chaired by Robert Cobb, dean of the College of Education and Human Development at the University of Maine, will sponsor a public form on Wednesday, January 13. The purpose of the forum is to hear the concerns and seek the ideas of a broader constituency on addressing issues of incivility and violence in schools and society. The Task Force has spent the past six months examining issues, trends, existing policy and resources, and the barriers schools and communities face in preventing and responding to youth violence.
