Know How to Protect Yourself and Others

Concerns over this new virus can make children and families anxious but it is important to educate yourself with trusted resources.

Take a moment to review this “Talking To Cildren About COVID-19: A Parent Resource” for great talking points about how to address fears about COVID-19 with your children.
