SUMMARY:How to Talk to Kids About Hard Grief Topics
DESCRIPTION:Many times it can feel daunting to discuss difficult topics with children. We often think that it is best to shield them from distress by withholding information. This approach typically backfires\, making the child more persistent in finding the answers they seek. This training will explore effective\, age-appropriate ways of discussing topics such as death\, the functions of the human body\, and the importance of honesty with children who are grieving. \nTakeways: \n\nLearn age-appropriate dialogue and conversation on various difficult topics.\nDevelop insight into initiating difficult conversations with caregivers effectively.\nGain knowledge on discussing the anatomy\, functions\, and roles of the human body.\nExplore formulating a comprehensive sharing strategy for families to promote successful communication.\n\nThis training is for Florida residents due to our collaboration with Empath Tidewell\, Blue Butterfly Grief Center \nTwo CEs ($10) available through CEBrokers for Florida LMHC\, LMFT\, LCSW\, and Certified Master Social Worker.

SUMMARY:The Big 3: Lying\, Stealing and Raging
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, July 25\, 2024 from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. EST \nChildren and adolescents who have experienced trauma have unique brain wiring and are often at a mixture of developmental ages.  Typical consequence-based behavioral strategies are often not effective and can lead to further trauma and impact the relationship between the adults and children/adolescents.  Participants will learn new approaches to use with children and adolescents who have trauma histories which will help you to understand them better and improve communication and relationships.  The strategies we will cover are recommended for in-utero trauma such as FASD and also for trauma they may have experienced after birth.  We will specifically cover the Big 3; lying\, stealing and raging. \nPresented by: Barb Clark \nBarb Clark\, Director of Training at Families Rising (FKA NACAC)\, is a parent to five adult children\, one who is diagnosed with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder. She is an advocate for learning from her own mistakes to guide others in avoiding similar pitfalls. With a background in Youth Development from the University of Minnesota\, Barb leverages humor and real-life experiences to challenge traditional strategies and promote out-of-the-box thinking for professionals and caregivers. Committed to improving the lives of individuals affected by prenatal exposure to substances and trauma\, Barb specializes in trauma-responsive strategies and her personal passion\, Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD). Her dedication stems from her belief that she’s learned more from her children than she ever did in college. \nCost:  Early-bird $17 until June 30th\, then $27.00 \nFor parents\, caregivers\, and professionals. \n  \n
