In Focusing on Relationships, participants will explore the importance and complexities of developing relationships between caregivers, families and children. Participants should be clear that social and emotional development takes place in the context of relationships, so strategies to support development should prioritize relationship building. This training covers topics such as reflecting on participants' past and current relationships, as well as addressing issues related to culture, diversity, race, equity, risk and protective factors. It is recommended that the trainer spend time reflecting on the discussion questions prior to the training to be prepared to share their own experiences and facilitate discussions.
