Dear Ohio University Counselor Education community, Once again we are faced with a tragic mass shooting, this time targeting Asians/Asian Americans in Atlanta in which eight people were killed. Our hearts are with AAPI individuals and communities who have been targeted and traumatized since the onset of COVID-19. Please reach out with love and support to AAPI people in your orbit - family, friends, colleagues, peers. The American Counseling Association put out a statement yesterday in response to this recent incident of violence and hate. https://www.counseling.org/news/updates/2021/03/17/aca-responds-to-violence-and-bullying-against-asian-american-community<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.counseling.org%2Fnews%2Fupdates%2F2021%2F03%2F17%2Faca-responds-to-violence-and-bullying-against-asian-american-community&data=04%7C01%7Ccounselor_educ%40listserv.ohio.edu%7Cb191bd2c9ca449154a2508d8ea2c33f6%7Cf3308007477c4a70888934611817c55a%7C0%7C0%7C637516822866542349%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=CPRiHCfi8Hhath99padcRJVzucVsj6P5MS1oI%2BZD%2F6E%3D&reserved=0 > The link above provides resources for reporting hate crimes towards AAPI people as well as resources for counseling and support.
