In conjunction with its 125th anniversary, Maryville announces a series of symposia on Resilience in the Face of Adversity: A New Way of Thinking About and Working with Children and Adolescents.
Resilience in the Face of Adversity
There is a growing body of research that many youth - event htose with multiple severe risks in their lives - can develop into confident, competent and caring adults. It is resilience at the root of that success. These symposia focus on research about resilience as well as the skills to promote that resilience in youth.
The following symposium will be held at the Priory Campus at Dominican University in River Forest, IL. Click for directions
