Next Monday, November 6th, Dr. Hughes and Dr. Amato will be hosting a special event for TRAUMA INFORMED PARENTING in person at 8:30 am at EHB and virtually at 8:00 pm to discuss ways to support children through times of trauma.
These sessions will focus in particular on helping our children with resilience, provide helpful insight into their needs and how to provide a supportive environment at home and school. We will also discuss the importance of self-care for parents. All are invited, but especially those impacted by the war.
