Resources for After-a-Tragedy

The CSSRC staff mourn the loss of the victims that were killed in the supermarket shooting on Monday, March 22nd in Boulder. 

Our hearts and prayers go out to the victims and their families.  We also recognize the trauma this may cause many others as one more senseless shooting impacts our entire Colorado community.

We have gathered these resources for parents and school staff. We urge you to protect our children from too much exposure to the news.   Please also take care of yourselves and your loved ones.
