Thanks for having me.....

Some children are not “bad.”
They are overwhelmed.

Their anger is often grief with nowhere to go.
Their shouting is often pain that doesn’t have the words yet.

Children rarely say:

“I feel alone.”
“I don’t feel understood.”
“I need comfort.”

Instead they slam doors.
Raise their voice.
Push people away.
Act “difficult.”

Because pain in children
doesn’t always look soft and sad.

Sometimes it looks loud.
Defensive.
Angry.

And behind many angry children
is a child still hoping someone will stay,
listen,
and love them through the storm.

The leadership retreat is intended to bring together Early Childhood Education Leaders in a supportive and inspiring environment where they can reflect, recharge, and reconnect through their shared mission.
Through collaboration, shared learning, and renewed visions. Early Childhood Leaders will be empowered to return to their programs with fresh energy and strategies to elevate the quality of care and education for our youngest children. By strengthening leadership at the foundation of early learning, we aim to create lasting, positive change that will impact children, families, and communities for generations to come.
