National Residential Education Day

Thursday, May 6 was National Residential Education Day, a day we celebrated by hosting the 42nd Willson-Johnson Lectures on our Waco campus. This year our lecture speaker was Mr. Frank Kros, MSW, JD. Mr. Kros is a leading child advocate, writer and speaker who is an expert in the development of the adolescent brain.

Mr. Kros gave a series of lectures on brain development in adolescents, with a special focus on those with challenging behaviors and those from abusive backgrounds. The lectures were open to all of our child care staff, and for social workers and child care workers in the Waco area. Here are some photos from the event.
