COVID-19 resources
All of us have to deal with such a global health crisis due to COVID-19 pandemic. We do know that all of us as trainers and school psychologists are making strong efforts to support our students, teach online courses and support school communities at local and national level.
We have asked trainers in different countries around the world to share COVID-19 resources and materials in different languages in order to be included on the ISPA website. Based on their responses, we have included the following resources from different countries in different languages.
We do hope that each of you and your families are doing well during this challenging time.
