[californiadisasters] Resource to talk with children about unconfirmed deaths

 

In light of the disappearance of flight MH 370 and the landslide in Washington I thought I would share one of our resources with you.  Coping with Unconfirmed Death: Tips for Caregivers of Children and Teens  http://www.nctsn.org/sites/default/files/assets/pdfs/Coping_with_Unconfirmed_Death.pdf

 

In addition, although the resources on this page discuss helping children cope with an earthquake they would be of use when talking with children about the landslide.
