We are delighted that Florida will be the first state to show the documentary, Resilience: The Biology of Stress & The Science of Hope on public television. Many communities have shown the film followed by facilitated discussions of trauma and resiliency and ways to reduce stress and strengthen resiliency in their schools and neighborhoods. We hope you’ll take this opportunity to encourage “house or dorm watching parties” or follow up community discussions.
Also, the film is available from Prevent Child Abuse Florida if you’d like to show it another time.
