Making Sense of Baffling Behavior: Strategies to Support Regulation, Connection, and Felt Safety

Sponsoring Organization: Buckner Children and Family Services

Date: November 12th, 2026

Time: 10am – 1pm eastern

Location: Virtual Training via Zoom

Description:
Research emerging from Relational Neuroscience, including polyvagal theory, regulation theory, and the neurosequential model of development, has shifted our understanding of how the brain grows and heals. When parents, caregivers, and the professionals who support them are armed with the latest science in brain development, they increase their capacity for connecting with children in a way that promotes positive growth and development of their relational, social, and behavioral brain.

Understanding behavior through the lens of the stress response system will increase the likelihood of implementing useful behavior interventions. Participants will leave feeling empowered by the belief that changing how we see kids’ behaviors is the most important strategy of all. Practical and immediately implementable strategies for increasing a child’s felt safety, sense of connection, and regulation will be offered, and a digital folder of resources intended to support the integration and implementation of the material will be provided.
