Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Lecture and Discussion May 4, 2011

Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Lecture and Discussion
Date: Wednesday, May 4, 2011
Time:  7-9pm
Topic:  “Challenging Child? Challenging No More….The Collaborative Problem Solving Solution"
Speaker:  Alicia Stevenson, Certified Think:Kids Mentor

 “Collaborative Problem Solving” is a model designed by the highly-regarded child behavior management authority, Ross Greene, PhD, Associate Clinical Professor, Dept. of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and author of “The Explosive Child” and “Lost at School”. This revolutionary and innovative model is compassionate, effective, and respectful and is gaining widespread, international attention! This presentation will show why traditional methods of intervention don’t work for so many challenging kids and what does work - from the perspective of a parent who’s been there.
