The frontal lobe of the brain is the seat of executive function, a term for the cognitive processes that allow us to plan, make decisions and judgments, formulate insight, and assess risk. The maturing of the forward regions of the brain, particularly the frontal lobe, doesn’t occur until late adolescence or early adulthood. Participants will learn how this impacts development and strategies for supporting adolescents during this development period.
