Over 140,000 children have experienced the death of a parent, grandparent, or caregiver from COVID-19, adding more stress to children and their families. 

The purpose of this toolkit is to supply school-based mental health providers with resources to support students, parents, caregivers, and school personnel who continue to experience anxiety, grief, and/or mental fatigue as a result of the trauma and disruptions caused by COVID-19, as well as from the evolving societal changes that persist in the wake of the pandemic. 

Additional resources compiled by the Mental Health Technology Transfer Center Network can be found on the Responding to COVID-19 School Mental Health website. Resources include best practices, trauma-informed care, telehealth tools, professional self-care, and much more.
