Jessica Minahan, NPS will present the workshop
Effective Strategies To Reduce Anxiety In Children
7:30 to 9:00 PM
100 Walnut Street, Newtonville
Room 210
This workshop will teach participants about classroom and home interventions for children (in preschool through Grade 8) with anxiety and related behaviors. Rather than respond with punishment- and reward-based consequences, it is important for adults to understand children’s challenges and teach them how to cope. This will allow children to improve their behavior by acquiring the necessary skills to make progress.
