Relationships are everything, and no one understands this more than early care professionals. The author of Bridging the Relationship Gap skillfully blends research and stories to illustrate just how critical strong relationships are for our youngest citizens. Using a blend of real-life examples and evidence-based practices, the author shares a consistent message of hope: when children have access to caring, supportive adults, their trajectories can change despite adverse experiences. Bridging the Relationship Gap is an ideal book for early care professionals in training, seasoned professionals interested in deepening their trauma-informed work, or supervisors looking to introduce trauma-sensitive practices and policies at the organizational level.?
Bridging the Relationship Gap considers the complexities of caregiver-child relationships and the challenging worlds in which many children develop. This book is a beautiful blend of research and reality, and provides practitioners with essential information about how to best support the children in their care.
