The School Psychology Program at the University of Nebraska at Omaha follows a scientist-practitioner training framework. This program focuses on a problem-solving methodology for delivering services, incorporating direct interventions and consultations across individual, family, and systemic levels, all grounded in evidence-based practices. The graduate curriculum places significant emphasis on training psychologists to provide thorough and impactful psychological services within educational settings.
Social justice represents both an ongoing effort and an ultimate objective demanding active engagement. School psychologists strive to safeguard the educational rights, opportunities, and welfare of every child, with particular attention to those whose perspectives have been silenced, identities marginalized, or requirements overlooked. Achieving social justice involves advancing equitable practices while strengthening families and communities. Through culturally aware professional approaches and advocacy, school psychologists foster justice by developing educational environments, communities, and systems that guarantee equal opportunities and fair treatment for all young people.
