Worst case is that we come out on the other end knowing more about the problem. This doesn't have to be 1:1 therapy, research has never been incredibly well funded and it's being dramatically reduced right now.

Consider that after school shootings, sometimes therapists have to volunteer their time to provide trauma counseling.

Every social worker I've met has at one point volunteered time to help someone because we exist in a system where they're not valued for wanting to help.
