Ask the Athletic Director WHICH of the coaches would be your best ally 
for speaking about this issue.  Then TEAM UP with THAT coach.  Having 
a coach or someone affiliated with college sports co-present gives an 
instant level of credibility with coaches (when I speak to athletic 
departments, they like to focus on my years as a college athlete and 
as a coach when introducing me).

Plus, co-facilitating with a coach will help you better prepare 
because you can share back and forth with the coach.  You'll get a 
much better feeling for their culture.

Hi all,

I’ve been asked by athletics on campus to do an hour-long training 
with the coaches focused on helping them identify students of concern 
and the best way to intervene.  This request is in reaction to Yeardly 
Love and wanting to help coaches recognize red flags and intervene 
early.  Seems like they are wanting something interactive (similar to 
the Step Up curriculum).  I’m wondering whether anyone has done 
anything like that and if so, whether they’d be willing to share with 
me their curriculum.  I’m not too familiar with sports culture and 
want to be thoughtful about preparing something that will speak to 
them and be helpful.

Any help, much appreciated.

Cathy
