UVALDE – Licensed clinical providers will offer support to community members in Uvalde who feel anxious, lost, and confused following the mass shooting at Robb Elementary that killed 19 students and two teachers.
Children, adults, and families are invited to attend a free in-person and virtual mental health clinic.
The clinic will be staffed with licensed clinical providers and will take place at El Progreso Memorial Library, located at 301 W Main St.
Providers are registered and vetted through the Give an Hour network provider portal to ensure current licensing.
