I Hear You: Active Listening to Engage Families

Learning from families about what is happening in their lives is crucial to being able to support them. However, sometimes it takes time for families to tell us what is going on. This is where active listening can help. When we listen to understand what is most important to the family, we can join with families in their hopes, dreams, and goals for their child. In this webinar, we explore some specific listening techniques that can help providers deepen their connections with families.

What you will learn: 

  • Active listening skills, including being present, paraphrasing, and offering engaging questions and statements
  • How active listening supports effective two-way communication
Additional Information: 

Audience:
