Trauma can affect so much for children. How can early childhood care providers help and support children in their care who have experienced trauma?
Karissa Young (Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Consultant) and Jerolynn Bell-Scaggs (Licensed Professional Counselor and Infant & Early Childhood Mental Health Consultant) will describe different types of trauma and the potential reactions to trauma for young children. They will offer guidance for early childhood care providers including concrete strategies to try in the classroom, insights into how to talk to families, and considerations for when to get help.
Time will be available following the presentation for live question & answer, including with Dr. Dipesh Navsaria (Pediatrician & ECHC Director). Join the ECHC again this month in exploring best health & safety practices for early childhood care & education.
