SUMMARY:Understanding Early Brain Development - Ages 3 to 5
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, Novenber 20\, 2024\, 12-2pm EST / 11-1pm CST / 10-12pm MST / 9-11am PST \n2 CE ($10) offered for Florida LCSW\, LMHC\, LMFT\, CMSW through CEBrokers. \nCost:  $39.00 \nDescription\n\nBrain development reflects a child’s growing ability to understand and interact with their environment. During preschool years\, rapid brain growth occurs through synaptogenesis (forming new connections between neurons) and myelination (sheathing nerves to speed up brain signals). These processes create efficient brain networks\, making children eager to learn and absorb new information. Positive experiences and adult interactions are crucial for healthy brain development\, while harmful environments can hinder progress. This training will explore how to best support brain development and create a nurturing caregiving environment. \n\nObjectives: \n\nGain insights into brain development related to motor\, cognitive\, emotional\, and communication skills in children.\nUnderstand the significance of nurturing and supportive relationships during the critical ages of three to five.\nExplore and discuss strategies to foster healthy brain development in preschoolers\, including how parents and caregivers can influence this process.\n\nPresented By Kathryn Shea\, LCSW\, FASD United Board MemberKathryn has over 40 years of experience working with children with serious emotional and behavioral disorders and fetal alcohol and drug effects.  She received her Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and her Master’s degree in Social Work from the Univeristy of Kentucky.  She served as the President and CEO of the Florida Center for Early Childhood in Sarasota\, Florida for 12 years.  Kathryn is a past president of the Florida Association for Infant Mental Health and has been very involved in developing and expanding Florida’s Early Childhood Court Initiative.  Ms. Shea currently serves on the board of FASD United (formerly NOFAS) and is an independent consultant at the local\, state\, and national levels.  Kathryn has received numerous awards for her work in infant mental health\, FASD\, and child advocacy. \nThis training may help prepare you for competencies related to the Florida Association for Infant Mental Health Endorsement.
