Promoting Resilience in Children and Families:

A Developmental Perspective

MN Coalition for Targeted Home Visiting Resources

Resilience in children (and adults) is often considered – a protective factor, inherent to the individual – a biologically fixed trait or characteristic – an attribute we either possess or don’t. This webinar will challenge this common assumption – and instead define resilience as a developmental capacity or byproduct of our earliest relationships. Using this developmental perspective we will then discuss how home visitors promote and enhance resilience in both children and parents.

Presented by:

Mark Harmon, LICSW, IMH-E (IV) and Carol Siegel, PhD, LP, IMH-E (IV)
