I Have Some NEWS for you: Behavior Strategies and Advocating for Your Child
February 7 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Have you ever been approached by someone who says, “I just don’t know what to do anymore; we’ve tried everything!” Yes? Well, you are not alone. In this workshop, we will explore using inquiry and learn some collaboration techniques to support us in staying curious when confronted with hard situations related to behavior, regulation, and communication. Together, we will get the N.E.W.S. to notice, explore, wonder, and strategize to generate opportunities that have the best interest of our children at the forefront of what happens next.
Presenter: Jen Townsend lives in a state of inquiry, staying curious to challenge the status quo and to be authentic in how I notice myself and others with appreciation. I’m a partner, parent, professional, and passionate human. My absolute favorite color is orange. I have numerous degrees in education and several publications including a book Think Differently, and professionally I am an educational consultant who focuses on adult and child well-being by supporting skills that enhance engagement. I believe that we can do more than make a difference; we can be the difference when we choose to think differently.
