Group Programs
The Neuroeducation Framework —
built for groups, not just individuals.
Two complete facilitated programs turn the Neuroeducation System into a shared, sustained experience — for educator teams running a year-long staff study, and for family groups built around a school, agency, or counseling practice.
10 months · staff program 8 sessions · family program 12 framework concepts — both programs
Individual reading builds understanding. A group builds culture.
The Neuroeducation Framework is most powerful when the adults who share a child's world share the same language. These programs make that possible — at scale, over time, with structure that actually holds.
Shared language — not parallel reading
When a whole team reads the same framework together, they develop common language that shows up in hallways, team meetings, and conversations with families — not just in the person who happened to read the book alone.
Sustained over time and not a
one-day PD
Both programs are built to span a school year. Research on professional learning is clear: sustained, job-embedded practice changes behavior. A single workshop does not. These programs are built on that evidence.
Low lift but high structure
Both guides come with everything a facilitator needs: session-by-session plans, discussion questions, application activities, pacing guides, and facilitator tips. No curriculum development required. Show up and run it.
Staff Program: Neuroeducation Framework Book Study
Ten months, twelve concepts and
one shared year.
This guide turns three books — the Framework Guide, the Implementation Guide, and the Professional Workbook — into a sustained, ten-month shared experience for an educator team. Every session plan is ready to run. Every discussion question is written. The facilitator shows up and leads.
The program follows the Framework Guide's three-part architecture across ten monthly sessions, pairing related concepts where they naturally belong together. The year builds in four movements: establishing shared norms and purpose in Month 1, moving through all twelve concepts in Months 2–8, shifting to whole-framework application in Month 9, and closing with a full look-back in Month 10.

Who this program is for
Five group formats with one facilitation guide.
-
Whole-staff or whole-building book study
-
Grade-level team or PLC
-
Voluntary cohort of teachers who opt in
-
Coaching group led by an instructional coach
-
Mixed-role group — teachers, support staff, administrators
The guide includes a full Differentiating for Your Group section with specific adjustments for each format — including how to handle an evaluator in the room, how to fold sessions into existing PLC time, and how to run the program virtually with breakout rooms.
One workshop changes a conversation. Ten months of shared reading changes a culture.

Neuroeducation Family Book Study
Eight sessions, twelve concepts and
one shared program.
This guide turns the Neuroeducation Framework Guide and the Family Workbook into a facilitated group experience for families — run through a school, a counseling practice, a family resource center, or a foster/kinship agency. Everything a facilitator needs is included: session plans, discussion questions, application activities, and guidance for the hardest moments in a family group.
The eight-session arc is built around the Family Workbook's six built-in Monthly Check-In pages — which were already pointing toward exactly this structure. Six content sessions move through all twelve concepts, bookended by an orientation session and a closing session. Nothing had to be added to make the two fit together.

Community or nonprofit family support groups

Family resource centers and counseling practices

Foster, kinship, and adoptive parent cohorts

The guide includes specific guidance for facilitators working with foster, kinship, and adoptive families — including how to handle trauma history, attachment background, and the reality that timelines for change may be longer than other family contexts suggest.
Something shifts when families realize they're not the only ones asking these questions. The group is part of the program.

What makes these programs different?
Sustained over a school year
Both programs span months — not a single session. Research on professional and family learning is consistent: sustained, repeated engagement changes behavior in ways that one-time events cannot.
Grounded in the same framework
Both programs use the Neuroeducation Framework — so when a school runs both simultaneously, educators and families are developing the same shared language at the same time. That alignment is the point.
Production-ready for facilitators
Both guides include complete session plans, discussion questions, application activities, facilitator tips, attendance trackers, and differentiation guides. A facilitator needs no additional curriculum — just the guide and a group.
