Course overview
Lesson Overview

7.98 – Supporting Children Through Community Violence or Crisis: Exposure to community violence or crisis can deeply affect a child’s sense of safety. Begin with reassurance that adults are working to keep them secure. Limit graphic media exposure to prevent re-traumatization. Encourage open dialogue to dispel rumors and fears. Discuss helpers—police, nurses, neighbors—to restore faith in safety systems. Maintain routines and calming rituals to anchor stability. Seek professional counseling if nightmares or anxiety persist. Teach positive action, like volunteering or helping others, to replace helplessness with purpose. Over time, resilience grows from understanding and connection. Compassion becomes the healing force that rebuilds faith in humanity. Even after crisis, community care teaches children that good still exists.
