Adoption & Executive Function, Heritage Adoption Camps
Talk for parents
June 26 & 27, 2015
I was adopted so this talk is especially meaningful to me. It will take place at one of the Heritage Camps for Adoptive Families. These incredible caps take place each summer in various places around Colorado. This talk will be at the Latin American Heritage Camp. Learn how adoption and executive function combine to influence a student’s school experiences and what you can do to help students navigate better. Learn to discern if a challenge is related more to executive function or as a result of the experiences surrounding adoption. Learn about how education can empower children to find their path, and build upon their strengths.
