Posted

After major events like the school shooting at Abundant Life Christian School on Monday morning, people young and old can carry that trauma with them.

A Milwaukee non-profit is normalizing the discussion around mental health and offers a five-step process to handle trauma.

Stryv356 uses education, sports, and activities to help students throughout the Midwest handle traumatic experiences. The five-step process is called C.R.A.F.T. The letters stand for Catching Yourself, Relaxing, Assess, Focus, and Think.
