In light of recent political unrest and rising tensions, many of us are feeling a mix of anxiety, concern, and uncertainty. At Texas Community Counseling, we know how deeply external events can impact our mental and emotional well-being. That’s why it’s important not only to care for your mental health, but also to stay informed and know where to turn if you witness or experience a potential threat.
Here are trusted resources to help you stay grounded, secure, and supported:
National & Government Safety Resources
1. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)
CISA is a U.S. Department of Homeland Security agency offering cybersecurity best practices and protective measures for individuals, organizations, and critical infrastructure.
2. Nationwide Suspicious Activity Reporting (SAR) Initiative
The NSI is a collaborative effort between DHS, the FBI, and local law enforcement to identify and report potential threats of terrorism or related criminal activity.
3. "If You See Something, Say Something®" Campaign
An easy way to remember our shared responsibility in reporting suspicious activity. Threats, including online behavior, should be reported to local authorities or the FBI.
