Building Self-Regulation Skills in the Home
Children from birth to five are learning the foundational skills of executive functioning: self regulation, cognitive flexibility, and working memory. When developmental delays, disabilities, or sensory issues are present, these skills are critically essential in helping children be available for learning academics and social behaviors. Participants will learn how to create routines, use co-regulation skills, and the types of games that help build these fundamental skills. This training is geared toward family members of young children with disabilities.

Compassion Fatigue and Burnout
​
In professionals that focus on caregiving, advocacy, or support, emotional demands can often lead to compassion fatigue and burnout. In this session, participants will gain a deeper understanding of the symptoms and causes of compassion fatigue and burnout, and how these can impact both personal and professional lives. Participants will learn to recognize the signs and symptoms in themselves and their colleagues. Participants will learn how to alleviate and heal from compassion fatigue and burnout through self-care and coping skill techniques. Join us for this empowering session and take the first steps towards replenishing your emotional resources, so you can continue to care for others while caring for yourself.
