Raising children has its rewards and challenges, and the pandemic has introduced new hurdles for families. According to Malisa Rader, a human sciences specialist with Iowa State University Extension, parents are facing unprecedented difficulties in managing their children's needs during these uncertain times.
To support families, a new virtual program has been launched, offering practical tips and strategies for effective parenting. This initiative aims to equip parents with the tools they need to foster resilience and adaptability in their children. The program emphasizes the importance of open communication, establishing routines, and promoting emotional well-being.
Participants will learn how to create a supportive environment that nurtures their children's growth, even amidst the chaos of a pandemic. As families navigate remote learning, social distancing, and other challenges, this program serves as a valuable resource for parents seeking guidance and connection. The insights shared in these sessions are designed to empower families and help them thrive during these trying times.
