KIDS Center requests funding to support our immediate response and ongoing care for children and families affected by the Silver Rail Elementary School shooting. Funding will cover:
Crisis support provided by our therapy team (Director or Client Programs and two therapists) during the three-day family access center event, October 18–20, which connected affected community members with resources and services.
Materials and supplies used to create a welcoming, supportive space at the family access center.
Staff time for administrative support and coordination of care with community partners.
Ongoing trauma-informed therapy for affected children and family members over approximately the next 120 days (17 weeks) to support coping, restore a sense of safety, and promote healing.
