Toolbox Training

Parenting Physically Aggressive Children and Youth

Presented by Jean Bunnell

This six-hour training is intended for experienced foster and adoptive parents who are challenged by children with angry, explosive, and aggressive behaviors. The day focuses on specific strategies and skill-building exercises designed to help parents make a plan to respond to aggression, to recognize escalation and prevent explosive outbursts, and to know when additional help might be needed. Other areas addressed include the need for self-care and crisis plans.
