ORPARC Training - Proactive Parenting Strategies: Creating (S)PACE for Better Behavior

Presented by Jessica Sinarski of BraveBrains

Kids with tough histories often exhibit some “tough” behaviors, like opposition, aggression, and defiance. It’s a brain thing! Take some time to fill your toolbox with trauma-informed strategies that really work! Participants will walk away with a framework for reaching kids and teens before trouble starts - plus some in-the-moment rescue plans.
