Module 2: Parental Resilience
About this Event

Course Description: Resilience, simply defined, means the ability to recover from difficult life experiences. Resilient parents and caregivers have empathy for themselves and others and are able to keep a positive attitude, solve problems creatively and take life’s events in stride. This course will equip you to define and recognize signs of parental resilience, identify actions you can take to help build the resilience of parents with whom you work, share examples of ways to value and support parents and to respond to families in crises. You will be encouraged to integrate these concepts into your everyday practice with families.

Training Outcomes: Attendees will leave this workshop with a better understanding of what resilience is and how it fits with the protective factors. Participants will be able to identify actions that can be taken to build resilience and support others to build it.
