Nurturing the Well-Being of Children and Adolescents

Thursday, January 27, 2022, 11:30am – 12:30pm

This presentation centers on the social and emotional competence of children, emphasizing that a child’s social and emotional competence is crucial to sound relationships with family, adults, and peers. Parents support healthy social and emotional development in children when they model how to express and communicate emotions effectively, self-regulate, and make friends. The presenter will provide a framework for indicators of well-being in children and adolescents, identify normal development milestones for children and adolescents, and offer examples of evidence-based interventions to use when a child’s development has been impacted by maltreatment.
