Assist Parents in the Reunification Process
One critical aspect of crisis response is accountable reunification of students with their parents or guardians in the event of a school crisis or emergency. Anxious and frantic parents need clear, highly visible guidance to transform chaos into an organized process.
Crisis recovery starts with the crisis, not after. Without a plan to reunite students and parents, we exacerbate the stress and potential trauma of the crisis itself and jeopardize the responsibility of the school and district in maintaining the chain of custody for every student.

Crisis recovery starts with the crisis, not after. Without a plan to reunite students and parents, we exacerbate the stress and potential trauma of the crisis itself and we jeopardize the responsibility of the school and district in maintaining the chain of custody for every student. No school is immune to emergencies; fires, floods, tornadoes, blizzards, power outages, bomb threats, acts of violence... this is just a short list of events that could initiate a release and reunification for a school or district.
A predetermined, practiced reunification method ensures the reunification process will not further complicate what is probably already a chaotic, anxiety-filled scene. In fact, putting an orderly reunification plan into action will help defuse the emotion building at the site.
This product is designed from an experienced emergency management perspective, therefore a solid understanding of the Incident Command System and incident action planning is required. Visit their website for downloable process, procedures, Reunfication cards, SRM Parent Handout and much more.
