Resiliency Florida

The Florida Department of Education prioritizes building resiliency for Florida’s children and families by implementing a first-of-its-kind approach to help children develop essential skills like grit, perseverance and problem-solving. Resiliency Coaches are trusted volunteers who are trained to support children as they build resiliency to face day-to-day challenges and serve as one of the first layers of support.
