Understanding and Addressing Parental Stress is designed to help participants gain insight into the root causes of parental stress across developmental stages, the disproportionate burdens faced by low-income and marginalized families, and the lasting impact on mental health and parenting capacity. The training will offer practical tools and strategies to engage and support parents through trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and father-inclusive approaches. Participants in this webinar will: • Understand the current statistics and trends related to parental stress in the U.S., with a focus on disparities affecting parents with limited access to services. • Explore how stress manifests during early childhood, middle childhood, and adolescence, including financial, emotional, and time-related challenges. • Analyze how poverty, social isolation, work-family conflict, and limited service access intensify stress for parents, particularly for fathers in marginalized communities. • Identify evidence-based interventions, community support mechanisms, and policy recommendations that professionals can use to support stressed parents. • Learn techniques for engaging fathers in stress reduction supports and services, especially those who are often left out of traditional parenting programs.
