Resiliency

What is Resiliency?Resiliency is the ability to spring back from, and successfully adapt to adversity. The ability to bounce back from risks, stress, crises, and trauma and experience academic and life success. ( Henderson,1996)

"Every child by name, reaching core academic proficiency in core academic

disciplinesregardless of zip code, economic status,

race, ethnicity or disability."

How can we foster resiliency ?• Provide opportunities for meaningful participation and engagement.

• Increase bonding and connections.

• Set and communicate high expectations.

• Set clear, consistent boundaries.

• Provide caring support.• Teach “Life Skills”.
