PLEASE NOTE: To receive a certificate of attendance for the live webinar, attendees must register individually, attend the entire training, and watch from their own device to ensure proper tracking

This interactive workshop offers practical strategies for caregivers to enhance nurturing environments where children who have experienced trauma can heal and thrive. Participants will learn to recognize the impacts of early adversity on child development, and how they might support attachment-building with their foster and/or adoptive children. We’ll also discuss how to respond as effectively as possible to challenging behaviors. Through real-world examples and classroom-style discussion, caregivers will discover how their home can be a powerful setting for transformation and growth.
