Handle with Care Launches in Lawrence | Indianapolis News
Description
Lawrence is rolling out a groundbreaking program called Handle with Care, designed to quietly support students traumatized by life-altering events like accidents, domestic violence, or crime. When police officers spot a child in crisis, they can instantly flag the school via a simple QR code—no details, just a gentle alert. Schools then discreetly notify teachers, who can offer extra patience, compassion, and access to counselors. This seamless collaboration between police, schools, and health departments ensures kids don’t fall through the cracks. Officers can opt in voluntarily, and the program launches as schools reopen August 6th—offering a lifeline to vulnerable youth before they’re overwhelmed.
