Content Abstract

The 33 modules of a Utah district’s successful Resilient Youth Curriculum pilot program provide guidelines for initially working through students’ protected exteriors to establish trust and facilitate the resiliency-building process. Students then develop ownership of the program by participating in planning, shaping, and implementing the curriculum. Kids study process, personality traits, paradigms, skills, and life planning. (ERIC Clearinghouse #EA533963)
