Thank you to Jessica Shields Flowers for joining us in Vero Beach to lead our Conscious Discipline® Immersion Program for local early educators.

Through this initiative, Jessica has guided teachers through practical, relationship-based strategies that strengthen classroom management, build positive connections, and create calmer, more responsive learning environments. Educators who participated in this workshop represented SDIRC’s Prekindergarten Program, Head Start, Roseland Christian Preschool, Community Preschool, Bridges Early Learning Center and Green Family Day Care Home.

This program continues to help early educators across Indian River County cultivate classrooms where both children and teachers can grow and succeed together. Ripple Effect -Charleston's conscious discipline experts
