Promoting HOPE and Resilience in Early Care and Education
August 21 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am
HOPE (Healthy Outcomes through Positive Experiences) is a strength based, child centered, family led approach that supports children’s health and development. It is based on the premise that positive experiences can help children grow into more resilient and healthy adults. HOPE’s core assumption is based on the science of the positive. It states that positive experiences promote children’s health and well-being through allowing them to form strong relationships and connections, cultivate positive self-image and worth, and provide a sense of belonging and develop skills that build resilience. The session will outline the HOPE framework for professionals at the birth to five level and discuss workplace resilience.
