These guides and resources for youth are for educators, youth leaders, and parents seeking ways to help children and youth understand and, more importantly, find ways to take action. Understanding and action are key ways to help all people, and especially children, have a sense of control during these difficult times. Please contact us if you have requests or suggestions about these or other resources.

We are providing the complete draft version of the curricula, below, and will update this link as soon as the final production version is available.
