Training-Stress: Coping, Calming, and the Brain

Please join the Family Resource Network for Our Upcoming Workshop:

“Stress: Coping, Calming, and the Brain”

Wednesday, October 30, 2024
6:00-8:00 pm
Online

In children, stress can cause meltdowns, tantrums, and undesirable behaviors.  These can be frustrating for parents who aren’t sure what is causing them or how to respond.  Join Family Resource Network to learn about:

• Stress, brain development and how stress affects the brain
• How our children with special needs are affected by stress
• How parents can model ways of coping and calming

The Nurturing Program for parents and Their Children with Special Needs and Health Challenges is designed to help families explore their hopes and fears, develop effective parenting skills, enhance communication, develop strategies for facing challenges and recognize opportunities for celebration and growth.

This is an interactive workshop and participants are encouraged to keep their cameras and microphones on during the session with the presenters. We do understand that everyone has different comfort levels when it comes to the use of video conferencing.
