Webinar – Building Blocks of Childhood: Key Lessons for Grownups

Protecting and caring about children means knowing the facts – the building blocks – about childhood and child development. The more that adults know and understand children, their behaviors, and their essential needs, the better we can stand on business for children to help them thrive.

Children don’t come with instruction manuals (wouldn’t that be great?). Fortunately, there are adults who dedicate their life’s work to studying, understanding, caring for, teaching, and otherwise helping children grow up safe and healthy. This Child Abuse Prevention Month, Safe Shores—The DC Children’s Advocacy Center is hosting a conversation with three such experts.

Join us on April 9, 12-1:30 PM EDT for a rich and nutritious conversation featuring:

• Cindi Gibbs-Wilborn, MA
  • Head of School, Beauvoir, The National Cathedral Elementary School
• Taiya Harvey Gregory, LICSW
  • Program Manager, District of Columbia Public School’s School Mental Health Program
• Maria Trent, MD, MPH, FAAP, FSAHM
  • Professor of Pediatrics, American Health, and Nursing, Johns Hopkins University
