SEL Micro-Training: Powerful Feelings Deb Norris August 18, 2026

Special Topics: Afterschool ,
Sponsor: Vermont Afterschool Inc
Instructor: Kathleen Bray

When it comes to strong emotions, what we see is rarely what is actually going on with a child. Powerful emotions invite us to check assumptions at the door and go deeper into what’s really causing the behavior. These micro-opportunities for long-term growth can have an indelibly positive impact on children. This workshop offers practical solutions and strategies to navigate the landscape of strong emotions — how they can present in unusual ways, and how we can support youth when they’re in the thick of what they’re feeling.
