The Sublette Prevention Coalition sends a great big shout out to Big Piney families and community for finding creative ways to honor loved ones in these difficult times.
Ways to support your kids’ wellbeing during times of stress and loss include:
Nurture strong, positive relationships with parents and guardians – help them feel secure and supported
Encourage connections to other non-parental adults
Closeness and sharing with caring friends – text, phone calls, safe in-person interactions
Nurture positive feelings of belonging in school
Encourage feelings of belonging to something bigger than themselves – community, culture, religion, sports team
Neighborhood safety
Awareness of and access to local health services that offer overall resilience.
