Program Descriptions:
Dr. Stephen Sroka is a motivational speaker who integrates cutting-edge research with reality-based strategies for dealing with the issues that face our youth today including sex, drugs, violence, bullying, suicide and academic achievement as well as mental health and school climate and safety. He addresses the challenges of building trusting relationships: communication, collaboration, culture and caring. Using the WSCC concept (Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child), he stresses the importance of brain-based learning, ACE (adverse childhood experiences), trauma-informed education, resilience, stress management, social emotional learning, and why kindness matters. The program is filled with ”tips from the trenches” to help you keep students safe and healthy so they can learn more and live better. He offers honesty, humor and hope that everyone can Make a Difference.

Sroka has spoken worldwide with The Power of One message, how one person can Make a Difference. Last year, Steve died while presenting a school in-service. Two SRO’s, a principal, two school psychologists (one being his daughter) and others saved his life and changed his message. He usually delivers life saving information to audiences, and this time the audience saved his life. He now talks about The Power of Many, how it takes a team to make a difference. His presentations change your life professionally and personally.
