Lauren Edwards, MSW, MPH, LSWAIC, therapist on our team and former Fellow at UW presented their findings at Seattle Children’s Hospital this week. We are grateful for their work directly with youth and families, as well as proud of their leadership in our field. Children and youth are whole humans and social determinants of health are critical in the work. We have always focused on research based delivery of services at Rule and Associates, which is why we are extra proud of Lauren’s leadership in the greater professional field too.

Everson, Nooksack, Sumas- while the flood waters have receeded, our community is still in the acute recovery phase. That means, many people have experienced so much loss that basic needs are needing to be met and our household goods and clothing needs replaced. While we at Rule and Associates are still continuing to provide mental healthcare for the whole family, we also know many of you need more during this time.

For the next few months, the works foundation will be moving their operations into a small portion of our offices for emergency use to get out of the rain. We are happy to donate the use of this space for community benefit and to make it easy for you ts dry, warm, organized goods for free as it can be helpful to you. We remain separate business entities, yet together with a shared heart for our community recovery.

We continue to appreciate all of your community donations for the food pantry as well. Take what you need, leave what you can share.

We will get through this together.

In times of disaster, emotional stress can show up in many ways:
• Trouble sleeping
• Heightened anxiety
• Irritability or shutdown
• Kids acting “off” or regressing

These are normal responses to abnormal events.

If you need support — now or in the weeks ahead — our clinicians are here to help. Our offices are open and you can come in and have a hot cup of coffee and dry off, and warm up whether you have an appointment or not.

We can do phone appointments or in person- your choice.
You don’t have to carry this alone.

Rule and Associates is holding a blanket drive. Flood survivors need brand new clean, cozy blankets. Many were lost in the flood in desperate attempts to sop up water and it’s been a big request. We all know a cozy blanket brings much comfort in times like these. If you’d like to drop a brand new blanket off at our offices, we will be sure they are distributed to people who want them. Thank you for your generosity in this great time of need in our community.

Our office on Everson is completely dry and we are so grateful.
All appointments are on as usual and if you need a hot cup of coffee and a dry place to sit down you are welcome to come in and rest

All EVERSON office visits will be moved to telehealth today due to flooding. All Bellingham visits will continue as scheduled. If we don’t see you in person, we will call the number on file and convert it to telehealth. All of our therapists are available to serve you. Stay safe ❤️
