What is a RESPOND WITH CARE WORKSHOP?

Child-Adult Relationship Enhancement (CARE) Workshops were developed for parents and caregivers of children ages 2-18 who have experienced stressful events in their lives, children with behavior problems, or parents who want to strengthen the relationship with their child. The goal of RESPOND WITH CARE is to strengthen the adult-child relationship and increase children’s positive behaviors.  RESPOND WITH CARE workshops are fun and interactive. 

RESPOND WITH CARE is divided into three parts:

Managing Stress: Teaches ways that stress may show up in kids and how to support them during stressful times. 

Relationship Enhancement: Caregivers are taught skills to decrease negative behaviors while developing positive communication with their child.  Caregivers use the following skills to increase positive behaviors: Praise, Paraphrase, and Point Out Behavior.

Strategies for Compliance: Caregivers are taught elements of effective discipline and child management skills, such as how to give good commands, when and how to use selective ignore, and other discipline techniques to redirect problematic behavior.
