Dear Families,

As a result of COVID-19 we are all navigating a "socially distant" world. Our SAP Team has put together a list of resources for fun activities and tools to cope with the stress and anxiety related to these uncertain times. We hope you find them as useful and rewarding as we do!

The Department of Human Services (DHS) announced the launch of a statewide Support & Referral Helpline staffed by skilled and compassionate staff who will be available 24/7 to assist Pennsylvanians struggling with anxiety and other challenging emotions due to the COVID-19 emergency and refer them to community-based resources that can further help to meet individual needs.

The toll-free, round-the-clock support line is officially operational. The number to call is 1-855-284-2494. For TTY, dial 724-631-5600.

Youth Move On
