Every Child Belongs: Using Trauma-Informed Strategies to Stop Exclusion for Preschoolers

January 13 @ 10:00 am

Event Navigation

Preschoolers often show big feelings and behaviors as they learn to manage their emotions and be with others. Sometimes, these behaviors can be misunderstood in school settings and lead to exclusion, such as children being left out, suspended, or expelled. Over time, repeated exclusion can set children on a path toward long-term school struggles — a pattern often called the preschool-to-prison pipeline.  This training helps families understand why these behaviors happen, how stress and trauma can affect preschoolers, and what parents and caregivers can do to support their children’s growth and inclusion. Participants will learn practical, trauma-informed strategies to respond to big emotions at home and to work with teachers and schools in strength-based ways. Together, we’ll explore how connection, communication, and understanding can create safe, supportive learning environments where every child can thrive.  After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. For accommodations, please email denise.beckett@temple.edu one week before the session date.
