Promoting Resilience in Children
Online, On-Demand Workshop
Resilience: the ability to “bounce back” from setbacks, to adapt and overcome adversity, to cope with challenges by making use of internal resources and social supports.
Difficult experiences are an inevitable part of life, and so by supporting resilient practices from childhood, we aim to strengthen a child’s ability to overcome both current and later in life stressors. Research has shown that, even though it may have a genetic component, resilience is a skill that you can build.
Take this training to learn more about the protective buffer that resilience offers against stress as well as strategies to help promote and strengthen this trait in the lives of the children you engage with.
In this training, you will learn about:
- The importance of resilience in children
- Factors that contribute to resilience in children
- Various strategies to promote resilience in children
