Presentation Summary
One-to-Two-Hour for Parents or Professionals

It is a well-worn cliché to say it takes a village to raise a child. But research into the factors that predict a child’s healthy growth when exposed to danger or stress shows us that a child’s resilience depends on his or her family and community just as much as personal strengths. In this presentation Dr. Ungar will review what we know about resilience and how it can help us reach out to young people who are challenged by mental health problems in different cultures and contexts.
