Children need and benefit from a strong emotional-behavioral foundation. They will be healthier and happier across the lifespan if we provide them with the necessary tools and skills.
We can make this happen by seeing to it that our children get the right start they need. As parents, we can encourage and support behavioral education at home.
And, we can also advocate for making behavioral health part of the regular curriculum, starting with elementary school. Together, we can make this shared vision a reality.
