Please remember that you can still watch recorded sessions and earn credit hours. NASW CEs are available if you fill out all the surveys, take the quizzes, and submit this form by October 3rd.

 

The HealthySteps Symposium (formerly known as the conference “Pediatric Pre-Forum”) is a free online learning event that will address both typical and atypical feeding behaviors in patients ages 0-3.

 

Topics include the stages of feeding, ways to promote self-regulation and positive parenting practices related to feeding, as well as how partnering with caregivers and medical providers can address feeding challenges, including food insecurity in primary care.
