CT State Taskforce on ACEs and Resilience presents post-screening of Resilience panel

Welcome and thank you for joining us tonight for our post-screening discussion of Resilience.

A reminder from one of the filmmakers, James Redford: “Resilience is not just a complimentary individual quality, but something that is built. And you build it through a number of things in your life, part of it being social fabric. There needs to be the support and help around you, even when you may have an unhealthy home environment. Many people have overcome that home situation simply by having at least one caring adult, whether a teacher, mentor or religious leader.”

Content alert: This discussion will include topics that may be difficult for some people to engage with, due to the sensitive nature of Adverse Childhood Experiences or trauma.
