“I have had the great fortune to host and attend Dr. Stroud’s training on topics such as reflective supervision, cultural humility, social-emotional development, trauma-informed care, and infant mental health. These topics have significantly assisted county-operated Head Start and Early Head Start program staff to understand evidence-based practices and the unique characteristics of the 0-5 population. Additionally, these training sessions were extremely interesting and useful to attendees. Many of the agency staff have remarked on the powerful and lasting impact of these professional development opportunities for them both personally and professionally. Finally, Dr. Stroud made the content accessible while presenting the material with expertise, care, and genuineness. What an honor it has been for me to work with Dr. Stroud at the county level.”
