Dr. Ann Webb, a trained Ruby Payne speaker, will facilitate a book study: Emotional Poverty. Participants will
discuss when emotional poverty occurs: the brain is not integrated or regulated, the inner self is underdeveloped,
bonding and attachment are not secure and the external environment repeatedly reinforces "less than" or "separate
from" status. All participants will receive a book which will provide understanding of emotional poverty, tools, and
strategies to utilize in classrooms to meet the needs of students who are experiencing emotional poverty.
