Children who have histories of complex trauma, including experiences of prenatal substance exposure, abuse, neglect, loss, and witness to violence often endure significant emotional and developmental struggles, sometimes even years after placement stability has been achieved. This workshop will explore the neurobiological impact of complex trauma, including the profound effects of early adverse experiences on brain development and behavior. Strategies to help adults promote emotional and behavioral regulation will be introduced, with focus on how adults show up, what adults can say, and tools adults can use to promote organized and regulated behavior. This overview will conclude with 15 minutes for Questions and Answers.
