I have gathered a few links and resources to assist you and yours.
Brené Brown puts it so eloquently…
“These are anxious times. I hope you are well, taking care of yourselves, and finding a way to connect with people you love. If you are a healthcare worker, social worker, counselor, first responder, store employee, food delivery person, or anyone out there on the frontlines: Thank you. You are our heroes. We owe you so much.
If you are someone who loves a frontline person: Thank you. We also owe you so much.”- Brené Brown
