As a parent you are asked to navigate a nonstop lifestyle
of juggling priorities and demands. Every parent wants to do the best they can for their child. We know that positive experiences and factors strongly influence how well your child develops. Likewise negative experiences or influences aren’t good for your child’s development. You can think of your child’s life as a scale, and the things stacked on either side shape your child’s development. Resilience is having a scale that’s tipped positive even when a lot of things are stacked on the negative side.

Come to this workshop and discover which factors are tip- ping the scales toward resiliency for your child. Learn how to stack up positive factors and off-load negative factors. Work with other parents to map out resources within your school and community. Leave with a better understanding of resilience, skills for enhancing resilience, and a resource grid for supporting resilience.
