On Friday, December 9th over 60 parents and guardians joined a parent workshop hosted by Amber Peirsol that aimed to equip families with tools and strategies to improve the communication between adults and children. The strategies were based on the book Positive Discipline by Dr. Jane Nelson, which the first semester book club had read. Book club members helped to facilitate conversations during the workshop and provided some of their experiences utilizing the strategies and tools.
