What can participants expect from this training? Please describe the learning objectives and what the training experience will be like.
Kate Rosenblum, PhD, ABPP: Hi, I'm Kate Rosenbloom. I'm a clinical and developmental psychologist at the University of Michigan. And I'm looking forward to a presentation in January that I'll be doing along with my colleague, Dr. Maria Muzik, a perinatal psychiatrist, on the topic of early resilience. So we'll be giving a talk titled from Zero to Thrive: Nurturing Resilience in Families from Pregnancy through Early Childhood. And in this talk, what you can expect is to learn more about the Zero to Thrive and Strong Roots Framework. We're going to talk about the science behind resilience in these early years and how this has led to the identification of the Strong Roots Protective Factors. Drawing from our own work on programs that use and address these protective factors, and this includes programs like Mom Power, In the Fraternity of Fathers, as well as a parent-to-parent Strong Roots Parent Cafe program. We're going to illustrate how these protective factors can help children, families, and communities flourish. We're going to share tools with you that you can use in the work with families that you serve. And these will be freely available and available in English and in Spanish, and they're designed to really help support parents and caregivers in responding to children's behavior. Recognizing that there's no one right way to parent, but instead empowering caregivers to create space for reflection and consider how they want to respond. We are excited about this work and we believe strongly in the work that you all do and are committed to making sure that the information that we share with you is information that you can take to the work that you do. The very important work that you do to support the families that you serve. So, we look forward to seeing you in January and thank you for your attention.
