Building the Skill to Bounce Back
Resilience is 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.
This training is part of the A Way of Being with Children: A Trauma-Informed Approach to Building Resilience series, with a focus on children ages birth to 5.

Who Is It For?
Parents, caregivers, teachers, and school personnel who want to help children build the internal resources and social supports they need to navigate life's challenges with greater confidence.
What Will You Gain?
