Trainer Certification Event

February 24–26, 2020, 8:30am – 3:30pm Central

Become certified to take the insights from the Emotional Poverty training back to your school or district. Train others to help students understand and process emotions more effectively.

The workshop addresses emotional poverty and builds emotional wealth in your students.

Emotional Poverty:

  • Provides understandings of origins of anger, anxiety, and avoidance
  • Gives a language to talk about brain regulation, integration, and emotional competence
  • Provides tools for educators to address and reduce anger, anxiety, and avoidance
  • Helps educators manage the “classroom dance” that occurs between the educator and the students
  • Provides the tools to motivate good behavior
  • Identifies the differences in male and female emotional processing

Participants will receive a copy of Ruby Payne’s book Emotional Poverty, along with a USB drive containing a PowerPoint presentation and other resources.

“It was one of the most riveting speeches I have ever heard you give, and it gave us a sense of reassurance we all desperately needed. People cannot wait to get your book on emotional poverty. The information you provide can and will save the lives of so many children.”

—Jimmy C. Stokes, Ed.D.
