Module 3: Family Dynamics

Tools to help strengthen family dynamics during moments of crisis.

We want to help each other weather the storm brought by disruptive disasters, including pandemics. That’s why we’ve gathered experts and built resources that anyone can use.

On this page, you’ll find tools to help strengthen family dynamics during moments of crisis. “Family Dynamics Tips & Tools” is a useful downloadable document featuring tips for building strong families during times of adversity, with a special focus on youth/young adults, parents/spouses, and families more broadly. You’ll also find a helpful video featuring hard-won experience from an expert IOCC Frontliner: Presbytera Athanasia Kostakis DMin, LMSW.

These materials were developed by an IOCC Frontliner Advisory Group composed of Orthodox clergy, licensed clinicians, and counselors.
