Brief Session Description
Social emotional competence takes several years to develop and many times children do not have positive role models helping them to develop these necessary skills. But, when these skills are in place, children’s development in all domains can continue to stay on track and the incidence of abuse can be decreased as children are displaying more appropriate behaviors. By implementing Strengthening Families in child and family-serving agencies throughout Georgia, we can create interactions and interventions that are intentional, purposeful, and focused on increasing the positive child development outcomes and decreasing the likelihood of child abuse and neglect.
