During the Thrive quarterly meeting on November 2, network participants explored ways programs can identify and support families experiencing stress. Research has demonstrated a link between toxic stress and poor developmental outcomes for children. Therefore, early childhood programs have an opportunity to engage relationally with families to better understand their challenges and connect them to the support they need.
