Our early lives shape our ability to communicate, and to form relationships. What happens when children experience trauma and adversity? This exciting new workshop balances theory and practical approaches in an exploration of the nature, presentation and management of communication and relationship needs. It will be of interest to anyone who works with adults or children who have experienced trauma or other forms of childhood adversity.

Participants will:

>Examine the effects of trauma and other Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) on the development and consolidation of communication and relationship skills.
>Discover the effects of trauma and adversity on the developing brain, and explore implications for work with individuals at any stage of life.
>Explore the presentation of communication needs in the populations you work with, find out how to identify individual needs, and form specialist strategies for effective communication.
>Learn how to make communication more personalised and responsive to individual strengths and needs.
>Develop approaches to practice that are truly inclusive.
