We are very pleased to offer this quality free education session for all parents presented by the CSO parent education team. Resilience is a quality that strengthens our mental health and enables us to cope better with life.

 Looking at research from Beyond Blue, and Dr Justin Coulston’s ‘9 ways to a resilient child’. This session unpacks 3 areas in a child’s life that impact resilience. The unique child, family connections and community. We look at the strengths of the child and how families can best nurture those abilities and skills.
