Check-In Time: 8:00 AM Start Time: 8:30 AM End Time: 4:00 PM 2 day Workshop fee (includes breakfast, lunch, and materials for both days) $75.00 Registration Deadline: 3/25/2019 Location 1: SCSC Conference Center "A" Location Map North Mankato, MN Contact: Rhonda Jensen Telephone: 507-389-1425 Description: Conference Description: IECMH is a multidisciplinary field that serves to enhance the development of all children by facilitation of strong early caregiver/child relationships and supporting developmental repair for older children who have had these early relationships challenged. Early relationships have a significant impact on a child’s educational and social future. Children with developmental disabilities possess a significantly higher risk for stressed primary caregiver/child relationships. Occupational and physical therapists working with infants, toddlers, and young children will have their practices enhanced by understanding the principles of IECMH and applying these principles to their daily therapeutic interventions with infants and toddlers in their homes and with older children in their educational environments. Course attendees will enhance/develop their abilities to: 1) Understand early dyadic (parent/child) attachment relationships and the significance of attachment to the development of self- regulation as a basis for early learning with an emphasis on sensory-motor development. 2) Understand impacts of stress and trauma (with an emphasis on Neonatal Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) on the developing brain and recognize the impacts on motor development. 3) Understand the parental contributions to dyadic attachment relationships while exploring the impact of adult attachment styles, mental illness, domestic violence, substance abuse, developmental delays, and abuse/neglect on children with sensory-motor challenges. 4) Apply principles of IECMH to new and specific occupational and physical therapy treatment strategies to enhance early dyadic relationships, mitigate the effects of trauma and stress, and facilitate a more neuro-typical motoric developmental trajectory for children receiving Early Intervention and Special Education services.
