Speakers Announced!
A Full Day of Social Emotional Learning Awareness in November
A critical part of a child's growth involves his or her
Social Emotional Learning (SEL) development, the process through which children understand and manage their emotions. The Children's Trust is showing its dedication to this crucial part of their development by holding a
Social Emotional Learning Awareness Day from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m., November 2. The day-long event includes a morning session with speakers followed by breakout sessions in the afternoon focusing on adverse childhood experiences (ACES), responding to mental health crisis and the National Alliance on Mental Illness'
Ending the Silence program.
Speakers include:
- Demian Laudisio, Coordinator/trainer for the SAMHSA Mental Health Awareness Training at Jewish Community Services of South Florida
- Dr. Nicole Fava, Assistant Professor in the School of Social Work at FIU
- Sarah Troya, Program Coordinator for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy at the Robert Stempel College of Public Health & Social Work at FIU
The event will be held at the United Way, 3250 SW 3 Ave., Miami, FL 33129. Lunch will be provided and there will be raffles.
