For fourteen years at an early intervention center\, Rosanne has been committed to helping children\, families\, early childhood providers\, and direct service providers better understand the importance of social-emotional health\, well-being\, and how strong\, positive relationships can help children (and adults) develop trust\, empathy\, compassion\, and have a better sense of who they are.\n\n \nPassionate about supporting relationships\, Rosanne believes in cultivating relationships through connection. The cornerstone to her work is exploring the depths of social-emotional health in the parent-child relationship. In her work\, Rosanne supports families\, early childhood providers\, and direct service providers in developing the capacity to experience\, regulate\, and express emotions; form close and secure interpersonal relationships; and explore the environment\, within the contexts of family and community\, and culture – how they all influence every aspect of human development.\n\n \nAs a CODA (Child of a Deaf Adult) and DHH herself\, Rosanne brings this layer of experience and knowledge to her work as it relates to families of children who are deaf\, deafblind and hard of hearing.\n\nWe are pleased to welcome Rosanne in sharing this information with attending families.
