Resilience Community Events

What are Resilience Community Events?

Resilience Community Events, formerly known as Parent University, is the result of a district commitment to the power of collaboration. The issues students face today look far different than the ones faced only a few years ago.  These challenges have a profound impact on our youth and in turn, how students navigate education, social interaction, and personal well-being.  A commitment to the whole child requires collaboration with the whole community.  Our annual Resilience Community Events are the manifestation of that vision.  In the fall of 2016,  a plan for a yearly program that brings parents, schools, and community resources together with the sole purpose of navigating the "tough" issues students face was born.  With commitment from key members of our administration, our community, support agencies, and students, we held our first event in 2017.  This event addressed Adverse Childhood Experiences and the impact they have on physiological social and mental development.  Having the privilege to interact with students on a daily basis offers a keen view of the issues that impact youth today.  It is with this in mind that our team continues the mission to connect our district with the community at large.  It is our hope that this site serves to preserve some of the rich content offered by our dedicated service providers, community members, administration, staff, and students.  If you find that you have been led here as a result of a personal crisis or are looking for immediate assistance or support, please contact Crisis Intervention at (717) 394-2631.
