"Resiliency" is the ability to bounce back from setbacks and difficult circumstances in life. Recent research raises hopes that we can foster resilient attitudes in our youth, particularly those "at risk."

Students need this kind of information. These sites will lead you into further exploration of this powerful and empowering concept.
