Handle with Care Program

The main goal of the program is for police, sheriff, fire department, and schools to work together, in partnership, with youth that have experienced a traumatizing event. Often, children experience trauma between the time that they leave school and return the following day. This program gives the opportunity to advise school staff that a student was involved in a traumatizing event….and to handle them with care.

Simply send an email notification to the school email handlewithcare@gospoilers.org. Grafton public school counselors will receive the messages. The message will not contain any details regarding the incident triggering a response- it will simply say “Handle Susie Smith with care”.
