Local authorities, including the Avon Police Department, have begun contacting families whose children may have been impacted.
If Your Family Has Been Contacted
If you’ve received a call from the police, or even if you simply have concerns it’s completely understandable to feel unsure about what to do next. Many families are asking the same questions right now.
Your first priority is your child’s safety and emotional well-being.
Try to create a calm, supportive environment where your child feels safe.
Avoid leading questions, and instead allow them to share at their own pace.
If needed, consider speaking with a licensed child therapist experienced in trauma.
Just as important is making sure you have the right support for yourself as a parent.
