“…Since in many regions of the world, most children attend schools most days throughout the year, school-based supports afford opportunities to meet the needs of all children, thus facilitating the social justice objective of addressing societal ills. Encouraging child participation is imperative for the field of school psychology and will enable it to serve as a catalyst to actualize social justice (Mulser & Naser, 2020, Shriberg & Desai, 2013.…”

“…As school psychologists progressively incorporate the principles of the CRC into their everyday practice and into their advocacy for policies and programs, it is critical to ensure that the entire professional standards and protocols are congruent with the CRC (Nastasi & Naser, 2014). Additionally, it is equally important to make sure that the school psychologists have a clear understanding of the CRC and how to incorporate it into their work not just with children, but also the families, their peers, and other professional groups (Mulser & Naser, 2020).

<p style="text-align: justify;">The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) is the first human rights treaty with the ultimate goal of providing conditions conducive to child health and development. The CRC is grounded on four guiding principles: (1) non-discrimination; (2) best interests of the child; (3) the right to life, survival, and development; and (4) respect for the views of the child. These CRC principles are consistent with a social justice approach within the field of school psychology. This article highlights implications for school psychologists and encourages school psychologists to be at the center of the process of measuring, advocating, and actualizing all rights under the CRC, including the right to participation, in schools throughout the world. A summary of the Rights Respecting Schools initiative is offered to provide a concrete example for school psychologists and other school-based professionals.</p>
