Design and Implement Policies Through a Mental Health Lens (Live Online)

The Academy at Chemeketa Community College

Policies are the backbone of any early childhood education program, but can we rethink how policies are implemented?

<h3>Policies are the backbone of any early childhood education program, but can we rethink how policies are implemented? See policies from multiple perspectives or an emotionally supportive lens? Participants in this engaging live online training will conduct an in depth examination of how policies respect differences and honor beliefs, preferences, and cultural expectations. Participants will also practice adapting their existing policies in order to ensure the program is supportive of all children's diverse wellness/mental health needs.</h3>O﻿RO SET THREE: Program Management (3.0 hrs)P﻿resented by : Mary Muhs, Ed.
