BREAKOUT SESSIONS OBJECTIVES
Roots of Resilience: Building Your Child’s Family Tree
Generational Trauma Cristal Martinez Acosta, LPC-S, NCC Clarity Counseling Consultation and Wellness, LLC Objective: Participants will understand the correlation between intergenerational trauma and handling difficult behaviors during childhood can improve mental well-being within all parts of the school system and wider community. This knowledge can change parent’s perspectives about “problematic behavior” and/or symptoms of trauma and learn trauma-informed responses that may help increase positive outcomes and well-being. This information will also increase caregiver insight to their own histories and potential willingness to address it.
Sheryl Wilcox and Claudia Perez ESC Region 19 SPED Department
Objective: This session empowers parents of children with behavior difficulties to advocate effectively for their child's needs at Head Start and beyond. Through constructing a family tree, parents will identify their child's strengths, communication styles, and preferences, facilitating collaborative planning with Head Start professionals.
