Emotional Regulation in Kids: Providing a Foundation to Manage Big Emotions

Children aren’t born knowing how to manage emotions or express feelings in appropriate ways. And when children don’t understand their emotions, challenging behavior can arise. This webinar will help you find ways to create healthy connections with kids, understand how to calm the child’s nervous system, and teach you skills to practice. Part 1 of a 3-part series sponsored by Polk County, Iowa's Behavioral Health & Disability Services agency.
