Once again we find ourselves at the end of a very challenging week…we hope you are all taking good care of yourselves, you are so important to so many in our community.

We want to share this link where parents can share their experiences and stories about accessing baby formula: https://forms.gle/qgRC4GWX8iiDRWjNA

We will use these stories to inform our legislative delegation- while we are working hard right now to be sure everyone has what they need, there are longer term policy changes that must be made so this never happens again. We want to keep the pressure on!

A special thank you to Anne Bureau who has been an amazing champion in this effort!

Thanks for all you do for families and young children!

Beginning July 2022

Brazelton Touchpoints is an evidence-based approach to building strong family-child relationships from before birth throughout childhood. Providers who implement Touchpoints in their practice partner with families to lay the vital foundation for children's early learning and healthy development.

Touchpoints is a developmental-relational approach that applies a deep understanding of children's behavior as the primary family-engagement strategy by anticipating known periods of increased stress in family functioning that are associated with developmental processes. Touchpoints builds strong, trusting partnerships between families and providers that can then effectively manage concerns that might arise about a child. Building relationships with families of children with special medical and developmental needs presents its own unique challenges.

This training will explore how Brazelton Touchpoints can help providers create and nurture collaborative partnerships with families, including families affected by children's special needs. If you work with young children and families, this professional development offering will introduce you to concrete strengths-based and relational strategies you can use to support yourself and the families with whom you work.

Course Format:
This course consists of six modules. Each module will be facilitated in a live, interactive webinar format. The course is followed by six monthly one-hour virtual reflective practice sessions. Attendance is required at live sessions. Sessions are not recorded.

Live webinar dates/times:
Thursday, July 7th 8am-12pm EST
Thursday, July 14th 8am-12pm EST
