SUMMARY:Fall Seminar: Emotional/Behavioral Management: Behind-the-Scenes & Policy Deep Dive
DESCRIPTION:***ONLINE REGISTRATION FOR THIS EVENT HAS CLOSED.***\nThe success of your camp’s emotional/behavioral management program doesn’t start at staff training – it starts in the fall\, when you review and re-evaluate your policies\, procedures\, and paperwork. If that sounds tedious\, we promise it won’t be! \nJoin Emily Golinsky to take a deep dive into the behind-the-scenes pieces of work that form the foundation for successful summers. We’ll look at things such as: \n\nquestions you should be asking as part of your camper application/enrollment process\,\nwebsite/marketing messaging that encourages applications from campers who meet your intended population\, and\nthe fine print that explains your expectations and policies to parents/guardians.\n\nWe’ll also dig into examples of complicated behavioral situations that arose locally this past summer and how specific language and policy elements will assist with resolving those challenges. Bring your situational examples and your existing forms\, policies\, and procedures! \nFrancesca Korbas\, Esq\, is a former practicing special education attorney and civil rights investigator\, with a deep understanding of inclusivity as it relates to youth with differing abilities. Francesca will also share information and recommendations for camps related to The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)\, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (the precursor of ADA)\, and more that will help you better understand what your camp can (and maybe can’t) do. Francesca will provide guidance on how to successfully connect school year supports and IEP planning to camp inclusivity planning. \nYou’ll leave feeling energized and ready to edit your emotional/behavioral fine-print (and not-so-fine-print) in preparation for the Summer of 2025!  \nThis seminar will be beneficial for staff at both day and overnight camps who work on the administrative/policy aspects of your camp’s behavior management programs. Multiple staff per camp are welcome to attend.  \nCheck-in will start at 9:30 am\, with the program kicking off at 10:00 am. \nLunch will be provided and you will earn 5 CECs for your participation in the seminar. \nAbout our Presenters: \nEmily Golinsky\, Bright Moose Training LLC \n \nEmily’s sessions get called “tremendously helpful\,” “definitely not the same-old-same-old\,” and “not to be missed–a reason to come to the conference!” Emily retired from a 15-year role as Executive Director at the therapeutically-based Camp Starfish (NH) to found Bright Moose\, LLC (www.brightmoosetraining.com)\, which provides training\, consultation\, and PD for camps\, schools and youth organizations nationwide.
