I see a lot of Facebook pleas from youth workers who just got a call from a parent or teenager in a crisis....
Ahh! I have a parent coming to meet me in an hour — her daughter was molested ... they need help now ... what do I do!!!This is not, it turns out, a good time to recommend a book — or even a chapter in a book.
When the clock is ticking, the right amount of help, offered right now, is worth more than a crisis master class next month.
That’s why I launched Crisis HelpSheets for Youth Workers — because sometimes what a person needs is a one-page download with enough information to get through the day.
Crisis HelpSheets for Youth Workers Cover
— what to look for
— what to ask about
— what to do first
— what to do going forward
The life-or-death Crisis HelpSheets are free — the are just $2 each.
PRO TIP: You can wait for that panicky phone call from a parent with a teenager in crisis … OR … you can download a double-handful of Crisis HelpSheets right now and put them in a folder for when you need them, so….
BRO TIP: If you’re in a social network with folks who care for teenagers, tell them about Crisis HelpSheets for Youth Workers. They’re not gonna hate you for that.
