QPI is grounded in the knowledge that the most effective intervention we can provide children to support healthy development and heal from trauma is strong, enduring relationships with caring adults. Dr. Barbara Stroud, licensed psychologist and internationally recognized expert on early childhood development and mental health, will explain the science behind connection as intervention and teach skills for nurturing the relationships that allow children to thrive. Dr. Stroud will also offer reflections on the insights that caregivers and systems have gained over the past year about the power of connection, and how we can build on those insights as we move forward.
