As the restraint trainer for my district, I gained little new knowledge from this training. This is a very important subject. Unfortunately, all of the barriers described in the training are very real. This is an issue that needs to be systemically addressed.

It takes a brave, confident, and well educated clinician to review a topic that is so vulnerable. We as a field, need so much more this!!

Thank you for the oportunista to lean from a tutor who is truly commited to their students.

This conference is the best of all, even discussing very sensitive topics, it was explained with professionalism, respect, and ethics.

One thing that screamed out at me was how Adults, Teachers, Staff often escalate situations instead of calming them. Training is needed but charter is also a concern. Many toxic people need help, they do not realize that they are the problem. Training and paying trained para's is one major think that must be addressed, especially in private Behavior Schools in California.

I wish I had known Michigan law was going to be the main topic. I was hoping for a broader focus that applied to multiple states.

Thank you for sharing your personal and professional experiences on the sensitive topic of restraints and seclusion. I hope you continue to research and analyze this area to help all of us become more efficient as we serve our students. Blessings!

Fantastic presentation about a very difficult topic. It was hard to listen to at times but so worthwhile. Dr. Brodhead did a great job presenting the current state of the problem, recognizing individual children who have been harmed to make it clear this is not an abstract idea, and providing resources to act. Thank you!

I appreciated seeing the data and having the definitions explained. It was nice to hear specific examples of what is and is not restraint/seclusion. The thing that I'm always left wanting more of, (and this is true for 99% of every CEU event that I sign up for), is specific ways to teach/handle events. Our work is sooooo nuanced, that I'm sure every attendee can easily ask 5-10 "what if..." questions and that's what I want to talk about. What if a child is throwing chairs and flipping tables and causing a threat to other students? What about a young child who makes incredible strides with learning when they're in a high chair vs. in a seat with an easy "escape route"? This would have been a good topic to have an open discussion (although I know it would have been a logistical nightmare to coordinate).

I could hear how much this presenter cared for the topic the entire time.
