COVID-19 has changed the ways that we live our lives, work, learn, and connect with people we care about. Our goal is to learn more about the experiences of individuals, families, children, and parents during this stressful time and to discover the many ways in which people are adapting, being resilient, and dealing with the increased stress, isolation, and anxiety that the pandemic have created. The information that we gather can help to inform how schools handle future pandemics and help us to develop preventative programs and interventions to address stress and anxiety and increase resilience.
