In the wake of the school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, Child Mind Institute has sought to create spaces to process emotions and take action as communities, to do what we can to support the victims and others who are reminded by these events of senseless tragedies that they have experienced, and to be present with the children in our communities as they process this news and cope. See the following resources from the Child Mind Institute.
Here are some important articles from our Family Resource Center:
In addition, there is a hub for multilingual trauma resources, including guides for parents and educators for processing traumatic events with children K-12. These guides have been translated into 12 languages.
Child Mind Institute also offers a collection of age-appropriate, brief instructional videos for students in elementary, middle, and high schools to promote coping skills practice and to aid in recovery following traumatic events.
