From Zero to Thrive! Nurturing Resilience in Families from Pregnancy through Early Childhood
January 23, 2025 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm PST
FreeThis webinar will introduce Zero to Thrive and the Strong Roots™ framework. We will review the science behind resilience from conception through early childhood, and how this led to the identification of the Strong Roots Protective Factors. Drawing from our own work with Mom Power, Fraternity of Fathers, and Strong Roots Parent Cafés, we will illustrate how Strong Roots Protective Factors can help children, families, and communities flourish. Presenters will share tools designed to support parents and caregivers in responding to their child’s behavior, recognizing there is no “one right way” to parent, and instead empowering parents and caregivers to create space for reflection and consider how they want to respond to their children’s feelings and needs. Attendees will be encouraged to consider how this approach might also be used to understand and respond to parents’, caregivers’, and even their own, feelings and needs. All tools shared are freely available in both English and Spanish.
