Science of Relationships: The Prevention Connection

March 30, 2015

Children's social and emotional competence prepares them for successfully handling life's challenges as they grow. Children with honed social and emotional skills communicate clearly, regulate their emotions, and maintain relationships with others because they problem solve and resolve conflicts.

This 4th Annual Strengthening Families Summit plans to bring the latest knowledge and strategies for building strong children. All workshops will increase participant's knowledge, skill and/or practice change in one or more of the following topic areas as they relate to the child's social and emotional well- being.
