McQueen, an education consultant, and director of alternative education with over 20 years of experience working with at-risk youth, this book offers a unique perspective on understanding mental health, de-escalation, trauma, and restorative practices in teens. McQueen's book delivers an authentic, research-based approach to understanding and working with kids who struggle with social-emotional issues.
Unlike other books on the topic, Calming Young Minds draws from real-world experience and practical, research-based solutions that have been tested and proven effective in the trenches of the classroom.

With strikingly positive feedback from educators and social workers who have attended his training and presentations, McQueen's book is both practical and inspiring.
