About this Webinar
This webinar is designed to give adults who support teens (parents, educators, clinicans, etc.) a clearer understanding of the executive functions—what they are, how they develop, how they can create challenges, and how to build them up. Hosts Mara and Kinnavey will provide attendees with practical strategies and activities for supporting the teens in their lives as they grow these skills.
This webinar will provide an overview of all 12 executive functioning skills, as divided into the following areas:
Cognition (our thinking/awareness)
Activation (getting started)
Action (doing the work)
Completion (getting things done)
Understanding executive function is key to helping teens stay organized, manage time, regulate emotions, and succeed in daily life—yet these skills don’t always come naturally. This webinar will break down practical ways to help the teens in your life strengthen these crucial skills.
