For Parents and Families

DCRC is committed to promoting partnerships between the most important adults in a child’s life, namely, parents (and other family members) and teachers.

In addition to our award-winning teacher resources, the ideas offered in this section will provide families with activities, strategies, and resources that promote resilience and social and emotional health in children. Resources are specific to each age range – Infants & Toddlers, Preschoolers.
