Intervention Materials

After The Storm
After The Storm contains information, activities and coping strategies to help parents and children cope with their reactions and feelings resulting from a hurricane and its aftermath. The material is designed in an interactive format, with adult and child-specific pages containing information and activities targeted for the intended audience. In some sections, "joint" activities are included to further enhance resilience by encouraging positive coping interactions between children and adults. The book is designed for use with children 6-12 years of age, but much of the information and activities can be adapted for use with older or younger children.
