The Amazing brain
Working with Dr. Linda Chamberlain and utilizing key principles of neurodevelopment and the latest research on neuroscience, ISF is creating the Amazing Brain Initiative. Together, we are creating a series of brochures specifically geared to parents and teens. They include: 1) The Amazing Brain: What Every Parent and Caregiver Needs to Know; 2) The Amazing Brain: Trauma and the Potential for Healing; and 3) The Amazing Adolescent Brain. Highlighted in each brochure are practical strategies about what can be done to support healthy brain development. The targeted audience is healthcare, child welfare and early childcare, and education professionals. The goal is to provide training, education and materials for providers, their patients, and parents about the effects of trauma on a child's brain.
