Lincoln County Best Beginnings Coalition
Best Beginnings is a collaboration of organizations to support and create high quality early childhood programs that strive meet the social, emotional, mental, and physical health needs of children 0-8 years old. The council focuses on conditions necessary for early learning to ensure that all kids enter school ready to learn. These include family stability starting prenatally; support for parents; education on pre-literacy, and what school readiness is; mental health and basic needs supports; quality childcare and preschool; and positive transitions to Kindergarten.

EVENTS
In this training, participants will be provided an overview of the impacts oftrauma and chronic stress on young children across the developmental domains. The focus will be on strategies participants can add to their tool box to better support children as they move through a variety of emotions, behaviors and social skills they may be experiencing based on these impacts. The trainer will share strategies that are evidence-based, drawing from models such as Attachment, Self-Regulation and Competency (ARC), Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS), attachment theory and other related works. These strategies will emphasize the environment, self-regulation, relationships and interactions– not only as interventions, but also as protective factors that boost resiliency in young children.
