SUMMARY:Connections Matter

Relationships help us learn better\, work better\, parent better. When we experience tough times\, relationships help us heal. With each connection\, we develop a healthier\, stronger community. Connections Matter is a training designed to engage community members in building caring connections to improve resiliency\, prevent childhood trauma\, and understand how our interactions with others can support those who have experienced trauma. Connections Matter explores how the connections we make in life profoundly impact our brain’s ability to grow and our own abilities to cope and thrive. This is done through a training curriculum that educates participants on adverse childhood experiences\, trauma\, brain development and resilience. Connections Matter ultimately strives to promote the building of more resilient\, compassionate\, and trauma-informed communities – thus allowing all children and individuals to succeed.

SUMMARY:An Introduction to Adverse Childhood Experiences
DESCRIPTION:Children who grow up in safe\, stable\, nurturing relationships and environments that foster hope and resilience are better prepared for lifelong health and well-being. The 1998 landmark Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) Study demonstrated that many adults recall experiences including abuse\, neglect\, substance abuse and areas of household dysfunction that led to lifelong poor physical and emotional health. Understanding ACEs provides valuable insights\, but of equal importance is the ability to consider ways children and families can flourish even in the face of adversity. This training will provide an introduction and overview of the Adverse Childhood Experiences research\, discuss how ACEs impact child development and the likelihood of developing negative health behaviors. Participants will brainstorm concrete ways to cultivate relationships and environments that create a positive impact for children and families in our communities\, which prevent and mitigate adverse childhood experiences. This training is approved by KDHE for 1.0 child care licensing hours.

SUMMARY:Making the Connection: Strong Families\, Strong Businesses and Strong Communities
DESCRIPTION:How do we ensure that children have a safe\, stable\, nurturing environment in which to grow? One strategy is engaging communities to support family-friendly policy and practice changes.

Based on the latest research and strategies for preventing child abuse and neglect\, this training will raise awareness and understanding about the connections between preventing and mitigating adverse childhood experiences\, which lead to stronger families and stronger businesses. Specific examples of actions that can be taken will be provided. NOTE: This training is approved by KDHE for 1.0 childcare licensing hours.

SUMMARY:Making the Connections: Strong Families\, Strong Businesses and Strong Communities
DESCRIPTION:The Period of PURPLE Crying® is the phrase used to describe the peak time when babies cry more often. Infants who cry a lot or are awake and fussy at night are a source of concern for many parents. Because of the normal increase in crying that occurs in the first months of a baby’s life\, parents and caregivers usually have questions. Crying is the most frequently reported trigger for why a parent or caregiver would shake a baby. Early prevention education is the key to decreasing the incidence of shaken baby syndrome and infant abuse. The Period of PURPLE Crying® is an evidence-based shaken baby syndrome primary prevention program created by the National Center on Shaken Baby Syndrome. Learn about the Kansas strategy\, how PURPLE is being implemented in hospitals and agencies across the state\, how the program was selected and the research behind it. This training is geared toward those professionals who are working with families with new babies\, whether through childcare\, home visitation programs\, health departments\, clinics\, etc. This training is approved by KDHE for 1.0 child care licensing hours.
