What is Resilience?

Resilience Resilience is the ability to become personally and professionally successful despite severe adversity Resilience is a normal trait that comes from inborn tendencies to adapt Resilience can be fostered in the right environment Paine (2002)

Resilience Developmental assets contribute to resilience: –External: positive experiences from people and organizations in the environment (support, empowerment, use of time, boundaries/expectations) –Internal: internalized qualities that shape judgment and choices (positive values, identity, commitment to learning, social competencies) Paine (2002)

Resilience Research indicates that students with a high number of developmental assets are less likely to engage in risk behaviors and more likely to succeed in school and maintain good health. Paine (2002)

The Importance of Resilience Represents the ability to deal with life’s challenges in a positive and productive manner Plays a central role in a person’s recovery after exposure to trauma or adversity Critical to understanding a person’s reaction to trauma or adversity
