The Community Resiliency Model (CRM)© trains community members to help themselves and others within their wider social network. The goal of the CRM is to create “resiliency-focused” communities that share a common understanding of the impact of chronic and/or everyday stress on the nervous system.

During this introductory session, participants will learn to use three strategies based on human biology and neuroscience to create new pathways that strengthen the ability to cope and bounce back faster when dealing with stress, and to grow the resilience that is already present.

The program will be livestreamed and available to watch later. The recording will be available until January 2, 2023. Click here to watch online.
