Promoting Resilience

April 22 @ 9:00 am 10:30 am

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 as well as new strategies.

This training is sponsored by United Way of Palm Beach County.
