May 2022 - Champion Development

For In our first hybrid gathering, we continued our work learning about Dr. Bruce Perry's Neurosequential Model, specifically looking at the Sequence of Engagement (Regulate-Relate-Reason). Curt Teff talked about the importance of acknowledging the stories we tell ourselves internally and how those stories affect our interactions with others. We watched Dr. Perry's video on the Sequence of Engagement and then watched a news story from Boston that showed an example of how interactions can become confrontations if we don't enter into them feeling regulated.

For July's Community of Practice:

• Watch for opportunities for when things get out of alignment and think about why they got that way.
• Ask yourself: what stories do you tell yourself during the most difficult situations you face with the people you serve?
