Growing Resilience

Cornell Cooperative Extension Orange County Plans
Virtual Programs for Parents & Caregivers in 2021

Middletown, NY – As we continue to remain physically distanced, Cornell Cooperative Extension Orange County will be offering a variety of virtual programs for parents and caregivers, as well as for professionals and the community at large. “Thanks to the dynamic nature of these programs, participants can expect to feel engaged and walk away with practical ideas that can easily be implemented in real life” says Julika von Stackelberg, Family & Community Resilience Educator at CCE Orange County.

On Thursday, January 14^th, at 3:30 P.M., CCE Orange County will continue to offer a monthly one-hour webinar series on Growing Resilience in collaboration with CCE Delaware County. The first session will focus on self-care, which forms the foundation for strengthening one’s resilience as an individual. Following webinars, which will be held on every second Thursday of the month, will include the following topics Growing Resilience to Keep Everyone Safe (in February), Growing Resilience and Teaching Resilience (in March), Growing Resilience and Positive Behavior (in April), as well as Growing Resilience to Build Organizational and Community Networks (in May).

Additional programs will be announced as they become available. For more information, or to register for one of these programs, go to www.cceorangecounty.org/events.
