Description: Coping with change and loss is difficult for adults, let alone our children. This training will discuss the challenges of assisting our school age children (through elementary, middle and high school) cope with anxiety, depression and social isolation related to COVID-19. When you consider the impacts of COVID-19 on our youth there is a need for us to be intentional about addressing their fears and also provide focused and intentionally brave spaces for them to process and communicate their losses and gains. Along with sharing solutions on how we can address social isolation, mental health and resources, this training will also provide statistics, symptoms, behaviors and ways to assist counselors, parents and educators return to normal and help students cope. Providing them tools to navigate our current circumstances will help as they transition to this new normal.

Objectives:

·  Review the challenges of assisting our school age children (through elementary, middle and high school) cope with anxiety, depression, and social isolation related to COVID-19.

·  Address the fears our youth face since the start and ongoing impact of this pandemic

·  Discuss how to provide focused and intentionally brave spaces for them to process and communicate their losses and gains.

·  Share solutions on how we can address social isolation, mental health, and resources

·  Establish ways to assist counselors and educators with getting back to the new normal as they assist students with developing health coping strategies.  We want to give them tools to navigate our current circumstances that will help as they transition to this new normal.
