“Mindfulness for Youth:” We are hoping to go beyond just teaching youth mindfulness- we would like them to become leaders and start developing creative content that we can share to get others involved. Would love to see some youth groups get involved with this one. But all of this will start with getting some training. Trainer Rene RedDay

In today’s newsletter, we would like to address an important and difficult issue that unfortunately affects many individuals in Coconino County, and that is domestic violence, child abuse, and COVID-19.
According to the American Psychological Association, traumatic events such as the COVID-19 pandemic, can lead to an increase in domestic violence and child abuse due to isolation, increased stress, and time alone with one another. MSNBC recently reportedthat calls to the National Domestic Violence have increased since the beginning of the pandemic.

Before the COVID-19 outbreak, Coconino Community College student Justin Eaton would attend his classes in person, something he enjoyed very much.
Now, he walks the dog, makes his coffee, eats some breakfast and strolls into his home office to go to school.
“It was a little bit of adapting, but it wasn’t hard,” Eaton said. “I do miss being in the classroom.”

Probably the biggest economic news right now is the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), the pool of almost $350 billion in forgivable small business loans that is one of the main components of the federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act.
Today’s bulletin will be a little different as we do a deeper dive on this one topic – what the PPP is supposed to do, the hurdles and hiccups it has faced in its first week, and how the government and financial institutions are responding.
April is Child Abuse Prevention Monthand this is top of mind for me as we move through the COVID-19 pandemic and the looming economic recession that will likely follow. The stress today on our families is unprecedented and my fear is that some children may bear the brunt of that reality.
The Coconino Coalition for Children and Youth recently published their Prevention Plan & Needs Assessment. In the report, Virginia Watahomigie CCC&Y Executive Director says, “We can no longer say-this is not my problem. The effects of childhood trauma have tremendous costs to society, and it is imperative that we develop the understanding of why and what can be done.”
Did you know that Coconino County is going live every day at 2:00 pm on Facebook to keep you informed about what the County is doing during this time?
Make sure to tune in at 2:00 pm each day to get an update from the County about COVID-19. All past updates are archived on the County’s Facebook page.

What is the 2020 Census and Why is it Important?
The census aims to collect an accurate count of our population which determines federal funding for our communities for resources like schools, hospitals, fire departments, roads, etc. The census also helps determine federal funding in times of disaster like the COVID-19 pandemic or forest fires, as well as determines the amount of seats Arizona will have in the U.S. House of Representatives.
The Coconino Coalition for Children and Youth (CCC&Y) strives to prevent substance abuse and other negative outcomes in adulthood by understanding the effects of childhood traumatic experience and mobilizing community action. Research shows that Adverse Childhood Experiences, or ACEs, contribute to the likelihood of addiction. Sadly, however, Arizona ranks higher than the national average for children who have experienced ACEs. These can include childhood traumas such as abuse and neglect. In fact, according to the Arizona ACE Consortium, “It is estimated that nearly 70,000 children in Arizona have more than five ACEs.”
