• Helping your children manage distress in the aftermath of a shooting
• Managing your distress in the aftermath of a shooting
• Helpful Hints for School Emergency Management: Psychological First Aid (PFA) for Students and Teachers: Listen, Protect, Connect – Model & Teach
• Listen, Protect, Connect – Model and Teach Psychological First Aid for Teacher and Students
