Resilience Series for Parents

LECTURE SERIES ON RESILIENCE by Dr. Kelly Moore

Well-being and resilience are both individual and collective endeavors—and during these difficult times, caring for ourselves, our families and our communities has taken on increased importance. In this year-long series we address the “me”, “you” and “we” of resilience and care.   Held monthly, these 90-minute sessions will be both didactic and experiential in nature. We will alternate sessions between the morning and evenings so as many of you can attend as possible—all sessions will also be recorded to watch at your convenience.

Small Facilitated Discussion Groups

In addition to the monthly talks, we will also be holding smaller practice groups to digest what we’ve learned in the larger sessions, have a place to share progress and to practice some of the exercises introduced in the larger group. These are led by fellow EPS current and alumni parents who have participated in Dr. Moore’s groups for several years and have had an additional year of facilitation training.

Some of the weekly practice groups will begin the week of 10/19. Each session is 1 hour and you are welcome to attend the group that fits best with your schedule. You can change from morning to evening at any time – facilitators will be offering similar material. There is no long term commitment to the groups but as with everything, the more sessions you attend, the tighter the community you will build and the stronger the practices will be for you.  For the most part, there will not be practice sessions on the weeks there is a talk by Dr. Moore. If you’d like to be on the email list for the weekly sessions AND you have not registered, please register here.
