Join us for an engaging and practical training with Emily Golinsky, the second session in our monthly professional development series:
De-Escalation: Managing Intense and Unsafe Behaviors.
This must-attend training equips camp and after-school professionals with proven tools to confidently navigate challenging behaviors before they escalate. Participants will gain hands-on strategies for recognizing early warning signs, preventing escalation, and responding effectively when behaviors become intense or unsafe, including situations involving aggression.
Through real-world examples and interactive learning, this session breaks down the full escalation cycle, from calm behavior and triggering events to peak intensity, de-escalation, and recovery. You’ll learn how to respond to different escalation styles, such as “tantruming” and “turtling,” and why one-size-fits-all approaches simply don’t work.
Flexible in design and tailored to participant experience, this training can include dynamic role-plays that allow attendees to practice skills, build confidence, and leave prepared to apply what they’ve learned immediately.
If you work with youth and want practical, effective strategies you can use right away, this training is for you.
Advanced registration is required.
