Supporting Children with Special Needs Webinar

Isabel Ruelas 3/7/189:00 AM

With Mary Weaver, Director of Prevention Initiatives in Northern MN at MN Communities Caring for Children

Brain development in infancy and early childhood is the foundation for a child's future development. Experiences teach the brain what to expect and how to respond. Trauma in early childhood teaches the brain to always be responding to threats.

The webinar goes over how early trauma impacts brain development, then discusses ideas, techniques, and accommodations for supporting children with special needs who've experienced trauma. The first steps to mitigating the impact of trauma is through awareness and understanding of trauma-informed practices.
