Nurtured Heart Approach®

Nurtured Heart Approach® Training is right around the corner.  When you ask?  That's a really good question that I've been trying to find out.  What I do know is this. . . a class will be taught by Kimberley Montgomery through the Jefferson County YMCA.  It was scheduled to start October 23, but there doesn't seem to be anything about it on the YMCA website.  I talked to Kimberly, and it sounds like it is definitely going to happen, but there is some uncertainty about the start date given there doesn't appear to be any information floating around.

While we get to the bottom of when this amazing resource is going to happen, here's some info about the Nurtured Heart Approach® shared by the Children's Success Foundation:

The Nurtured Heart Approach® is a set of core methodologies originally developed for working with the most difficult children. It has become a powerful way of bringing inner wealth to all children while facilitating parenting and classroom success. It has a proven impact on every child, including those who are challenged behaviorally, socially and academically. The Nurtured Heart Approach has also been shown to create transformative changes in children diagnosed with ADHD, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, Reactive Attachment Disorder and other behavioral, emotional and anxiety related symptoms – almost always without the need for long-term mental health treatment. Even children experiencing social cognitive challenges, like Autism and Aspergers greatly benefit from the Approach, reducing the need for traditional mental health and medical interventions.


And here's Howard Glasser himself talking about his development of the Nurtured Heart Approach®

I'll post more information about this training as soon as I know more.
