CFAS Webinar - NEW - Behaviour is Communication - Wednesday 16th September 2026 - 9:30am until 11:30am

The phrase ‘Behaviour is Communication’ highlights that a child’s behaviour often reflects their emotional state.

Children’s behaviour is a primary means of expressing their feelings and needs, revealing deeper emotions that require interpretation. It is crucial to look beyond the surface actions to understand the true messages behind a their behaviour.

In this webinar we will cover several topics, starting with the principles of therapeutic parenting, the importance of nurture and play, and how to respond to your child’s underlying emotions.

We will also provide an opportunity for you to examine a case study on toxic shame, and provide resources for foster and adoptive parents to use beyond the webinar.

Recommended for: All stages of adoption and fostering.

This webinar is free of charge for Adoption Matters families and Foster Care Matters families. It is also free for Regional Adoption Agency (RAA) families who are currently receiving support from the Centre for Fostering and Adoption Support.
