Back in The Office: From the Desk of Audi

Happy New Year! 

It is my first week back in the center. I have been working on preparing for the next housing fair that will be held in April. With so much in the works, there will be more to report for next week. I also had the opportunity to attend a training course on ACES, which stands for Adverse Childhood Experiences. A few things that I have learned is that children can experience all types of stressors. The same stressors can appear in boys and girls differently. The most interesting thing I learned is a way to build resilience for youth is to build their self-esteem, provide opportunities for learning, and learn their triggers and communication style.
