Raising Resilient Kids in Times of Stress

(for parents/caregivers of youth ages 4 -9) Whether it’s managing the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic or negotiating other stressful life events, life’s unpredictability can create parenting challenges as we strive to raise healthy kids. Join Cornell Cooperative Extension Albany County to discuss strategies that can help parents/caregivers manage the impact of stressful events on kids and families.

We will discuss ways to address children’s fears, create structure around daytime schedules, and use positive discipline strategies (even when we are feeling frustrated). We will also share strategies to help children manage stress and develop resilience, self-respect, and a positive self-image—their armor against the challenges of the world.
