Food Hoarding (2 Hours)
December 21, 2021 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
December 21st, 6-8 pm – Virtual
Many children that come into foster care, experienced food insecurity in their family of origin. This can often lead to behaviors of food hoarding, “stealing” or hiding food, or pocketing food after placement in foster care. In this training, participants will learn the science behind food hoarding in children, and real-life tools for helping the children in their home develop healthier eating habits. Register at https://learn.childally.org/. Contact Jamie Kelsey jkelsey@kvc.org for questions. A virtual link will be provided closer to class start.
