Developmental Differences and Difficult Conversations with Karen LaSage

Participants will further explore developmental milestones and will learn how to identify and support differences. Discuss and practice objective documentation and how to have those difficult conversations with families once a concern is identified. Learn how to develop partnerships with families by exploring their priorities, values, and backgrounds.
