Annual IMRF Summer Sessions

How High Do You Bounce?

Every one of us has been challenged by a tough situation sometime in our lives. We have also most likely witnessed highly resilient people that have the ability to adapt, recover, and grow stronger from difficult situations. In this workshop, learn what characteristics resilient people possess that help them create opportunities from challenges, and how you can also nurture and strengthen your resilience.
