The Maine Resilience Building Network is hosting free virtual (via the ZOOM platform) professional development for Early Child Care and Public Preschool providers across Maine.

Strong Kids, Strong Families, Strong Communities: The Impact of ACEs and Resilience Building will bring together Early Childhood and public Pre-K providers to learn about Adverse Childhood Experiences research, early brain development science and protective factors such as positive relationships. Family and classroom resilience-informed strategies to promote resilience building for our children birth-5 will be offered. The virtual event will provide an opportunity for new learning and meeting new providers from Maine programs and schools. We encourage everyone to invite a colleague.
