DESCRIPTION:Click HERE to register. Registration is free but required for a
 ttendance. \n\nAccording to recent studies\, 30% of otherwise healthy chil
 dren experience sleep disorders\, with profound implications for their phy
 sical health\, academic performance\, and emotional well-being. Despite th
 e prevalence and impact of these disorders\, access to effective intervent
 ions remains limited in Quebec and worldwide.\n\nIn response to this criti
 cal need\, Reut Gruber\, and the Scientific Committee\, comprised of Lila 
 Amirali\, Stacey Espinet\, Lily Hechtman\, and David Zielinski\, are proud
  to announce a one-day workshop aimed at equipping professionals involved 
 in the education\, assessment\, or care of children and adolescents with t
 he knowledge and tools necessary to recognize and address pediatric sleep 
 disorders.\n\nScheduled for March 15\, 2024\, International World Sleep Da
 y\, this free virtual event will feature educational sessions led by exper
 ts in pediatric sleep. Participants will gain insights into the relationsh
 ip between sleep and youth health\, mental health\, and academic performan
 ce\, as well as approaches for sleep disorders and improve young people re
 siliency through promoting their sleep health.\n\nChildren who do not slee
 p well frequently miss school or\, when they attend\, have a hard time foc
 using\, remembering\, and following the teacher’s instructions. They are i
 rritable and have difficulty regulating emotions\, so they suffer from hig
 her levels of anxiety and depression. Sleep problems in children are commo
 n\, often minimized\, ignored\, or inadequately addressed. We need to chan
 ge that. Children at risk of poor mental health or academic performance sh
 ould be screened for sleep disorders and get the help they need. Together\
 , we need to generate community awareness on the importance of healthy sle
 ep for our children and youth.\n\nIn light of the profound impact of pedia
 tric sleep disorders on children's lives\, this workshop represents a uniq
 ue opportunity for professionals from diverse fields to come together\, sh
 are insights\, and collaborate on effective strategies for improving sleep
  health in young people. By fostering interdisciplinary dialogue and knowl
 edge exchange\, we aim to create a supportive network of professionals ded
 icated to promoting the well-being and success of children and adolescents
 . Together\, we can work towards a future where every child has access to 
 the quality sleep care they need to thrive.\n\nParticipants will leave the
  workshop equipped with the knowledge and skills to appreciate the impact 
 of healthy sleep on children and adolescents' overall well-being.\n\nProfe
 ssionals interested in attending the workshop are encouraged to visit the 
 event page for more information and join us in this important endeavor to 
 improve pediatric sleep care.\n
