Resources for talking to your kids and families about COVID-19
As parents and adults with children and youth in your life, it is normal to feel worried about how to talk to them about the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Student Support Services team has put together suggestions for communicating with your kids. It also shares ideas for taking care of yourself so that you can be more emotionally and physically available to the children in your life under these challenging circumstances. This document is attached and will be available on Yukon.ca next week.
The Child Mind Institute has a great video you can watch here: “How to Talk to Kids about the Coronavirus” as well as extensive free resources for parents.
Physical distancing does not mean you have to go through this alone.
Supports are available to you and your families.
Here is a comprehensive list of community mental wellness supports for all Yukoners.
