 Things in the News</a>" PDF in 2021, it has become the FRI's most-downloaded resource. The topic of how to talk with children and young people about scary news and major world events has become one of our most-requested topics for speaking and workshops. As
 I write this, a team of three educators is in the Fred Rogers Archive reading letters children wrote to Mister Rogers about their difficulties and fears. What they read and learn will inform their work supporting children and families recovering from trauma.<br>
As Fred Rogers said, "Although children's 'outsides' may have changed a lot over the years, their inner needs have remained very much the same." The particular difficult news we encounter may change from season to season and decade to decade, but the fundamental
 need we all have to feel loved and safe always remains. We are glad to re-release this free resource today, with a few additional messages from Fred Rogers' work. We hope the words in this document will be an encouragement to all caring adults. You are "the
 helpers" who can do the essential work of letting children know their feelings and questions matter and that there are caring people everywhere who will do all we can to keep them safe. </div>
