About the event

Raising Resilient Kids - with Meghan McGuire & Kristen Pierce
The MRP Project’s Raising Resilient Kids program is for parents of youth ages 8-18 who want to ensure their child can positively and productively overcome life’s obstacles. In this four-week series we will highlight the essential role obstacles play in children’s development. The facilitators discourage parents from trying to “fix problems.” Instead, we discuss specific behaviors, thoughts and actions to help children cope with their feelings in a specific situation. These strategies can then be used to help deal with similar feelings in the future.

We spend some time during the first session discussing ourselves and our own resilience. This is an important aspect to the series, as it’s critical for us as parents to be resilient. We can’t expect our children to be resilient unless we’re modeling resilient behavior for them!

Specifically, we’ll explore the following topics in the 4-week series:

*Importance of Being Resilient, What Is Resilience, Identifying Strengths

*7 C’s of Resilience

*Sensitive Listening/Responding, The ABC Model

*Explanatory Style, Locus of Control, Social Media and Resilience, Staying Flexible, and Places to Look for Help.

Each class focuses on specific topics (outlined above). The facilitators provide time for problem-solving and group discussions. Participants can support each other, share lessons-learned, discuss experiences and learn from one another.
