Course Description

This forum is dedicated to tracing the roots and evolution of DMT with children, focusing this year on the leap we made moving our deeply embodied work to a virtual platform. What we learned by entering family environments of this youngest population is highlighted. Through discussion and experientials, participants explore the strengths, challenges, and innovations we discovered, including creating new video and animation props to engage children and how intercultural communication/competency from the diversity, equity and inclusion lens bridged the gap in understanding and supporting caregiver/child relationships by attuning to the lived experiences of the families and children we support.
