Strengthening Families: Nurture and Attachment

Facilitator  Liz Walker:

This training will focus on the importance of Nurture and Attachment from the Kentucky Strengthening Families model. Research shows that babies who receive affection and nurturing from their parents have the best chance of developing into children, teens and adults who are happy and healthy.   These children grow to possess individual-level protective factors, such as relational, self-regulation and problem-solving skills. When the parent-child relationship is strong, a family will thrive under most conditions and it is much less likely for abuse to occur. As ECE providers, we are in contact with parents on a regular basis. It is important to recognize, model,and support positive interactions for optimal outcomes for the families that are in our community.

This workshop is free thanks to the generous sponsorship by the Kosair Charities Face It Movement.
