This free webcast will help participants identify behaviors in preschool children that – without intervention – may lead to bullying in the future. Child development experts from The Hanna Perkins Center will discuss why typical efforts to prevent bullying begin too late. They’ll also offer a developmental understanding of what causes bullying, and provide basic tools to gently and effectively work with children who need help. The Hanna Perkins Center for Child Development is a non-profit agency based in Shaker Heights, Ohio that focuses on emotional intelligence – the ability to understand and manage feelings – as fundamental to a child’s success in school and life.
