Traumatic Stress and Care for Caregivers

While we may focus our care toward children and their stress and anxiety due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s critically important that we also care for caregivers. We are ALL exposed to the unpredictable and uncontrollable nature of this crisis, and we can all have feelings of anxiety and helplessness. Leaders can support themselves and others by understanding traumatic stress and stress mediation strategies. When we engage in self-care activities that promote a sense of safety and security, it strengthens our schools and homes and can improve the well-being of all.   CLICK HERE   to learn about traumatic stress and strategies on how to care for yourself and others during this crisis.
