Toxic stress takes a toll on all family members. Well-meaning attempts to educate parents about the damaging impact of toxic stress on their children’s development can end up adding more pressure and shame to an overwhelming situation.

This interactive workshop—developed originally for the American Academy of Pediatrics—is different. We’ll cover the basics of toxic stress, adverse childhood experiences, and trauma. The heart of this session is learning a strengths-based way to engage parents in building Protective Factors to reduce toxic stress. Updated to include discussion on pandemic-related toxic stress. Open to all who work with or are part of families experiencing high levels of stress.

Participants will be notified by email directly or through their department/organization registration contact. Use of internet applications such as Zoom and Adobe Acrobat or current PDF document viewer required and installed prior to training.

Cost: $175 per participant.
