Supporting Children and Families with Crisis and Loss during the COVID-19 Pandemic
Brought to you by the National Council for Behaavioral Health
The pandemic has underscored the emotional impact that traumatic events have on the lives of countless children and their families. What can be done to mitigate these adverse effects? How can we bridge a path forward?
In this session, the panelists will discuss:
- Using a system of universal support to promote resilience as the primary response to the pandemic.
- Common adjustment reactions to anticipate among children.
- Why guilt is a common response to crisis and loss.
- How caregivers can support children during the pandemic.
You will gain free resources from the National Center for School Crisis and Bereavement and the Coalition to Support Grieving Students to address these challenges and hear from experts in the field.
