Many of us have heard that we need to encourage resilience in our children, especially right now during COVID-19, but what does that mean exactly?  And how do we do that?  The Child Mind Institute has many easy to understand resources for families to help us better understand child psychology and development, including how we can encourage resiliency in our children.

If you are concerned about your child’s mental health, your child’s primary care provider is often your first and best resource, but the Child Mind Institute is a good place to learn more while you are waiting to connect with your child’s primary care provider or if just want to learn more.

You can learn about stress and resiliency, how to help our children grown their own capacity for resiliency and many other topics at https://childmind.org/topics-a-z/.
