9th Annual ACEs Summit

Keynote Presentation: Playfulness IS the Treatment

Sponsoring Organization: Arizona ACES Consortium

Date: 11/09/2022

Time: 11:15 – 12:45 Arizona Time

Location: Virtual

Description: 

Neuroscience, child development, and attachment research all confirm that play and playfulness strengthens the brain and increases resilience.  This interaction keynote will help you feel confident prioritizing play as the treatment in healing from trauma and toxic stress, especially with children who have challenging behaviors. Playfulness doesn’t need games or props or toys or even for us to be in the same room together!  Playfulness is experienced and shared through the resonance we co-create. You’ll leave with confidence that playfulness IS the treatment, and a toolbox of playful interventions that have been specifically curated as powerful brain-boosters.  Stronger brains means better behavior!

Registration Information:  Registration is open to the public.
