Trauma and Resilience in the Lives Featuring Keynote Speakers: Gilbert Foley, EdD ABOUT OUR CONFERENCE: Trauma has profound implications for the mental and physical health of family members and for the development of young children. Whether it’s the "big T" traumas, such as war, serious accidents and incest, or the "little t" traumas, such as ongoing emotional neglect or a family history of alcoholism, trauma impacts children either directly, when children, themselves, are victims, or indirectly, when parents’ trauma is transmitted to their children. This conference will explore the concept of both trauma and its equally important, but more elusive, counterpart: resilience. Speakers will define trauma and resilience and illustrate through case studies the impact of intra-family traumas, such as abuse, and extra-family traumas, such as those occurring on September 11, 2001. When: Friday May 14, 2010 from 8AM to 3:30PM Where: New York’s Hotel Pennsylvania
Invites you to join us for Infant-Parent Study Center Open House Supporting Both Child & Family: In working with children, the physical therapist needs to factor in the biological needs of the child & the needs of the family, as well.

And yet, the child’s own actions and interactions in the world of objects and people serve as one of the foundations for his capacity to learn to "crack the linguistic code." In this workshop, we will discuss the early stages of child development which set the stage for the development of the comprehension and production of language. In particular, the capacities for shared attention, shared intention, meaning, representation, and reference will be explored. By the end of this talk, you will be able:
