Webinar: Strategies for Using Conscious Discipline with eDECA: Maximize the Impact of Conscious Discipline

Conscious Discipline has teamed with Devereux Center for Resilient Children to offer a system to assess children’s social-emotional health and resilience, monitor progress and customize helpful strategies for growth. The Conscious Discipline and e-DECA Assessment and Planning System allows early childhood professionals and families to screen, assess and promote protective factors associated with resilience and the healthy social-emotional development of infants, toddlers and preschoolers.


The comprehensive assessment and planning system supports creating strong attachment, developing self-regulation, building initiative and reducing problematic behaviors by using Conscious Discipline strategies that are integrated within the assessment tool.


This web-based computer application allows for ratings to be entered online, completes all scoring, generates reports and stores the data in a secure database. It provides immediate access to reports, including individual ratings, rater comparisons, pre and post-comparisons, strategy reports and group profiles. Users can also generate a report that provides aggregate information across an entire program, and can download or export the data.
