Strength in Stories: Embracing Asset-Based Approaches in Early Childhood Education

This two-part professional development series invites childcare providers, preschool staff and early childhood educators to explore and implement asset-based approaches that honor the diverse strengths children and families bring to our classrooms.

In this 90-minute follow-up session we will deepen this work through collaborative case studies that highlight community cultural wealth, allowing educators to share successes and navigate challenges together.

Participants will leave with concrete tools to transform their practice, elevate children’s stories, and create more inclusive, strength-centered learning environments that celebrate the rich cultural resources of Humboldt County families.
