Kimberly Cohn, psychologist and Family Paths’ Head of Development, was featured on KTVU-Channel 2 on Feb 13, 2019 discussing the trend of school shooting drills and the potential trauma it causes for our children. Have these surprise drills been done at your child’s school? What has been your child’s response? Do you think you and your child should know ahead of time? We’d love to hear your thoughts on social media (you can find us on Facebook at @FamilyPathsInc, on Twitter at @FamilyPaths and on Instagram at @FamilyPaths).

And if your child is experiencing symptoms of trauma from these drills or anything else, and you live in Alameda County, feel free to call our 24-Hour Parent Support & Resource Hotline at 1-800-829-3777 and we can help.
