About this title

Synopsis

Sometimes misbehavior isn't what it seems. Many children come to care with early signs of mental- or behavioral-health issues. Early childhood professionals are often the first to notice that something is different.

How Can I Help? is a practical guide that helps educators first identify issues and then create nurturing, safe, and successful learning environments to set up all children for success.

Learn how to:

• Promote mental health for all children in your care
• Identify signs of behavioral-health issues in children and family members
• Support children who have specific behavioral-health difficulties
• Work with the families of children with behavioral-health challenges
