Description
A children’s story about the kit of comfort, a childcare center in a suitcase. The kit of comfort assists Children’s Disaster Service volunteers in caring for young children who have experienced trauma following natural disasters, such as a flood, hurricane, wildfire, or tornado. Volunteers arrive at disaster sites with a kit of comfort full of carefully selected toys that promote healing through creative, expressive play.
Since 1980, Children’s Disaster Services (CDS) has been meeting the needs of children by setting up play spaces in shelters and assistance centers across the country. CDS is a program of Brethren Disaster Ministries of the Church of the Brethren.
Written by Kathy Fry-Miller and David Doudt. Illustrated by Kate Cosgrove. Full-color, hardcover. Published by Brethren Press.
