Beyond Academics:
Emotional Intelligence Helps Children Thrive
Wednesday, November 18, 2026
7:00–8:00 PM ET
Live on Zoom | Free Parent Webinar
Helping children thrive involves more than academic success. The ability to recognize and manage emotions, navigate challenges, and build positive relationships plays an important role in their confidence, resilience, and overall well-being. For children with learning and attention differences, developing these skills can be especially important as they navigate frustration, setbacks, and everyday social and emotional challenges.
Join Dr. Judy Grossman for a conversation about emotional intelligence, why it matters, and how parents can help their children develop these essential life skills. Dr. Grossman will introduce practical ways for parents to promote self-awareness, emotional literacy, and self-regulation. These foundational skills are developed at home in the context of family relationships.
