The Roots of Resilience and Resourcefulness
While it is within every human’s capacity to be resilient and resourceful, this potential is not always realized for everyone. Raising children who can face adversity with confidence and find creative solutions to challenges has never been more important. Adults play a key role in cultivating the roots of resilience that will have lasting effects on their capacity to endure and find a way through difficult experiences. Facilitated by Deborah MacNamara, Ph.D.
Dr. MacNamara is on faculty at the Neufeld Institute, author of the best-selling book Rest, Play, Grow: Making Sense of Preschoolers (or anyone who acts like one), and the director of Kid’s Best Bet Counselling and Family Resource Centre.
