Families are sometimes forced to face trauma, loss, and grief. Recently, our area has struggled with the effects of Hurricane Harvey. The country is shocked by the shooting of innocent people in El Paso and Dayton. Our own community is trying to recover from a school shooting in Santa Fe, Texas. Recovery from events such as these can be challenging to some youth and their families, especially those most closely impacted. 

The following are high-quality resources that parents can use to help their children through challenging times such as:

• Hurricanes
• Floods
• Mass Violence
• Grief
  
  • Tips for Teachers and Administrators*
  • Concepts of Death**
  • What Not to Say***
