• Concern about COVID-19 is leading to feelings of anxiety in children and adults.  Acknowledging concern without panic is appropriate, and can lead us to take actions that reduce the risk of illness and protect our social-emotional wellbeing.  It is very important to remember that children look to adults for guidance on how to react to stressful events.
