Welcome

What is The Resilience Center?
The Resilience Center grew out of a demand to develop and test high quality programs to build and strengthen resilience. Through our research, we have learned that a strong resilience core is associated with less depression, anxiety, and chronic stress and positively correlated with health promoting behaviors, effective stress management and satisfaction with life. Few if any research-based programs are currently available to teach the fundamentals of resilience and the Resilience Center has stepped up to meet this important need. We conduct ongoing research, provide education and training, and offer resilience interventions tailored to an organization’s unique needs.

Mission and Purpose
Our purpose at the Resilience Center is to help all people recognize, build, and strengthen their capacity for resilience. Through our evidence-based programs, we have learned that resilience can be taught, supported, and reinforced resulting in lives that are rich, rewarding, and meaningful.
