Talking to Children about Gun Violence

Our hearts are filled with sadness and our love and encouragement go to the families in Texas.

Children may be feeling anxious, confused, and uncertain. As adults we may be feeling these same emotions. However, we can find ways to help children & ourselves cope and navigate, and yes - even learn, as they experience big emotions. We must do this even as we are overwhelmed by our own.

We have included a few links to resources below. It is by no means a solution, but a small part in finding hope and help. As always, we are here for you.

I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
