Link to the Fostering Resiliency Presentation

http://www.interprofessional.ubc.ca/EarlyYears/Presentations.asp

Here are the presentations from UBC's Early Years Conference 2012 held this February in Vancouver.  There are links on a variety of topics here.

 This is the direct link to the presentation I participated in.  The Federation of Community Socials Services of BC conducted the APP (Applied Promising Practices) 2-year research project and examined how families and parents 'make a shift' towards health.  
The project data shows that Family Resource Programs are useful, valid and successful partners in the array of family services required in our communities.  
Focusing on prevention, FRP practitioners foster resilience through instrumental help giving and intentional relationship-building.  Families feel equipped to navigate periods of sensitivity.  Families increase their social capital and protective factors, reducing risk.



I have the Literature Review, 70 page roll up and the 11 page Talking Points if anyone is interested.
