The pandemic has changed the way we live, work, go to school, and socialize. All of these changes may contribute to increased stress, and possibly trauma. In order to effectively help others learn and develop resilience, it is essential to take care of yourself. This session explores stress and trauma in early childhood and how that may impact you as an early care and education professional, and how to build your own resilience with self-care strategies.

Presented by: Meledy Dawson, Early Childhood Consultant and Training Facilitator, OCALI, Center for the Young Child
