DON'T DUCK GIVES HOPE
Anna Dangerfield and I spent an hour a week for the past five weeks with the children at Brothers and Sisters Club. We had so much fun reading stories, talking and sharing with each other about ways to handle stress, how to understand grief, how to control our anger, how to respond to a bully and how to get through a "horrible, yucky day". Through Don't Duck the children now have a better understanding that many of the hard times we go through affects our mental health. The children learned that this is normal too. Most importantly, they learned there is always hope.
