On this Universal Children’s Day we celebrate the power and importance of PLAY!

Child life specialists are certified and trained psychosocial professionals who utilize play as a tool to support the coping and development of the children we serve.

At Child Life Disaster Relief, all responders who deploy are certified child life specialists and use play to help mitigate the trauma disasters can have on children.

To celebrate Universal Children’s Day, we encourage you to join us in play today. Play to learn. Play to process. Play to collaborate. Play to express. Play to show your love for one another.

Happy Universal Children’s Day!

Child Life Disaster Relief responders are all certified child life specialists. This means, they have done through rigorous education and training to provide for the psychosocial needs of children and families.

Child life specialists are trained and educated on topics including child development, trauma, grief and loss, therapeutic play, emotional expression, and so much more. Our responders then go through training with CLDR to apply their skill set to the disaster response setting.

When our child life specialist responders deploy, you know the children they serve are in expert hands and are building additional coping skills that will continue to help them beyond the deployment.

Join us beginning November 29th for 12 ways you can help support our mission.
