The Importance of Attachment in Early Childhood: Patterns that Affect Outcomes
1:30 p.m. to 4:45 p.m.
The Wayne State University School of Social Work Office of Continuing Education invites child welfare workers, family preservation workers, foster care workers and adoption services to attend one of our specialized child welfare trainings. We are excited to host Wayne State University Assistant Professor and Clinical Coordinator, Carla Barron, PhD, LMSW, IMH-E® for this training titled "The Importance of Attachment in Early Childhood: Patterns that Affect Outcomes".
Attachment relationships are an important part of a child's early experiences and provide a foundation for the child's ongoing development. Attachment relationships provide a relational template that helps children determine how to be in relationships and what they can expect from relationships as they grow into adulthood. This workshop will define features of attachment that are critical to early and later child development and identify factors that influence the quality of the attachment relationship - including temperament, race, culture, and environment. We will also discuss strategies that can be used to promote the development of secure attachment relationships.
CONTINUING EDUCATION: Attendees can obtain 3 social work CECH upon completion of the training, payment receipt and passing of the post-training quiz. A CECH certificate will be emailed within 7 - 10 business days after the event.
COST: Free to all MDHHS workers and MDHHS contracted private agencies; $10 students; $45 all others
All attendees must RSVP for this training. Attendees will receive the Zoom link via email upon completion of the RSVP.
