Supporting Families Through Difficult Events 150 150 Ann Frances Gregg

People and families across Minnesota are facing difficult times. Recent events in Minneapolis and across the state have created fear and uncertainty for many families. Immigration enforcement actions are affecting our community. When the world feels uncertain, children look to trusted adults for reassurance and guidance.

We are one Minnesota, bound by compassion, courage, and hope. In grief we lean on each other, and in sorrow we find strength together. We believe in brighter days ahead and will continue to work for that future every day.

In moments like these, families often look for ways to talk with their children, ease their fears, and restore a sense of safety. We have gathered trusted resources from child psychologists, educators, and trauma experts to help guide these hard conversations. You will also find crisis hotlines and local supports for those in need of any age.

You are not alone. We will navigate this difficult time together.
