Parents and families are critical partners in helping children to develop social and emotional skills. It is important for caregivers to have the tools, support, and ongoing learning
opportunities necessary to maintain family well-being. This interactive session will explore how
parents can support their children's and family’s SEL development and the importance of
nurturing parental resilience and social connections in support of children's social-emotional development and school readiness. (Presented by Abbott Leadership Institute Parent Leaders Yolanda Greene and Carolota Tagoe, and ParentChild+ Parent Leaders Ana Muy and Tihesah Shearin)
