As the news struck the community of the school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut many of us felt our breath catch, and thought, "Not again." The tragedy of Chardon High School was being repeated – many times over – in a small New England town. Our hearts go out to the victims, their families, their friends, and the Newtown community, knowing some of the pain and sorrow that they are experiencing and the agonizing road ahead of them. In response, the Geauga County Board of Mental Health and Recovery Services has reached out to the Newtown area this weekend, providing assistance and offering any help that we can make available to deal with the trauma they have experienced. In the coming days, weeks, and months our work will continue to focus on the healing of the Chardon community, even as we work together to help patch the wounds of another. Jim Adams, Executive Director, CEO |
