Kids Are Kids! are hosting a Hanen Workshop called SPARK Communication™ in April. SPARK was developed for Early Interventionists to provide them with the strategies and coaching framework to help children’s early language development and work with their parents to apply these strategies at home. We believe that this is a great evidence-based professional development opportunity for our staff and professionals in the area.

The workshop is in Perth, WA on April 20-21, 2020. Registrations will open soon! If you are interested in attending, please sign up for email notifications. Hanen will email you with more information as soon as registration opens.

When you take SPARK Communication, you get:

• Research-based responsive interaction strategies – drawn from the world-renowned It Takes Two to Talk® Program – that have been shown to accelerate children’s language use and communication development
• A coaching framework for involving and teaching parents so they play a key role in facilitating their child’s early communication development
• Concrete plans for applying the SPARK coaching framework and interaction strategies with the families on their caseload
• A comprehensive set of resources to structure, plan and implement SPARK strategies with families (valued at over $100)
• 13.0 Professional Development Hours

What professionals say:

“I can now discuss the child’s communication with parents and give them strategies to help their child initiate and increase language.”

“After taking this workshop, I will have more confidence to help families feel empowered to work on their communication goals. I feel I have the tools to me help them make a difference, and I can share them with the teachers and educators who are involved too”

“I’ve [learned]… many new ways to present to parents how fun, easy and interactive putting these strategies into practice could be.”

“I’m not a speech-language pathologist, but I’ve used Hanen principles over the years thanks to the wonderful SLPs I’ve worked with. This workshop really helped me understand Hanen’s strategies and how to use them with parents.”
