Brian will lead us through an interactive and experiential training intended to nurture providers’ core intentions that motivate us in our work with families, grow our reflective capacity for the purpose of connecting to wider circles of community and culture, and provide concrete ideas and information for working more effectively with Native American families.
The training should empower everyone to approach difficult discussions and situations with a humble perspective of understanding that not all groups of people feel loved in our society and we have much work to do to achieve this goal.

Virtual Event

Join us as we discuss considerations related to coaching research, gaps in the research (much of the research is reflective of white, middle-class families), and considerations when engaging families in problem-solving conversations and reflection, from a culturally responsive perspective. We will do our own self reflecting and look at video examples of culturally responsive coaching in early intervention.
Learning Objectives:
- Analyze recommendations and limitations of caregiver coaching research as it relates to our work with culturally and linguistically diverse families.
- Describe considerations for problem-solving and reflection during all EI visits
- Compare caregiver education with caregiver coaching approaches
