Thursday, November 16 @ 7:00pm

DR. ROSS GREENE FOLLOW-UP DISCUSSION: The ideas shared at the Parenting Center Speaker Series with Dr Ross Greene about challenging behaviors were incredibly thought-provoking. We’ll keep the conversation going at our November Cup Chat with a focus on the October presentation, Dr Greene’s books, and our own experiences with supporting our kids’ behaviors at home and in the classroom.
