Talking to Kids About the Israel-Hamas War

Over the past week, we have witnessed the escalating violence in the Middle East and its reverberating impact, including on children and communities we serve. 

In an effort to deliver on the promise we make every day — to help families through life's toughest times — we are providing tools below to help parents and caregivers support your kids and teens at home. Each tool is anchored in what we know works for children in moments of crisis: open conversations, coping skills, and peer support. 

  • The National Child Traumatic Stress Network provides resources that can be filtered by topic or keyword and by audience, with a focus on how adults can identify traumatic responses in young people and how to support them.
