The emotional impact of an emergency on a child depends on a child\u2019s characteristics, developmental ages, and experiences. Thus, not all children respond to a crisis in the same way. In addition to school social workers providing resources for families and students that they service, Dearborn Public Schools will make a hotline available for students and\/or parents who are struggling in coping with COVID-19 issues that might cause anxiety, fear, and stress in our families. The hotline will be supported by 4-6 staff members daily. Counselors, Psychologists, and School Social Workers will be afforded the opportunity to sign up for a time and day of the week they would be available to support.
