Instructor:  Joy Wishtun, Jefferson Center for Mental Health

The Brain Architecture Game (TBAG) is an engaging, experiential training rooted in developmental science to inform a deeper understanding of experiences as key to shaping a person’s brain. By engaging players in a carefully designed, hands-on, group experience, the game helps people see and feel the implications of the science of early brain development. Utilizing team-work and cooperative play, TBAG will encourage a reflective discussion on a range of early childhood issues, policies, and programs.

Brain Development Series—Part 1
This training will cover a discussion of epigenetics and neurological development in the 0-3 brain. There will be a discussion of the idea of support-ing the first “1,000 days” and the process of “serve and return.”
