Month-long campaign will help kids and parents in Utah generate more resiliency and honor schools.
Resilient Utah, in partnership with SAFE Project, hopes that Utah Resilience Month will give children the tools they need to increase their inner strength to overcome adversity and believe in their ability to succeed. The goals of Utah Resilience Month are to help children choose to be alcohol, tobacco, and drug-free, and to build lasting resilience in children through the combined influence of schools, homes, and communities. Resilience Month is also an opportunity for community leaders, educators, and parents to teach vital messages of resiliency and prevention. It is a time to communicate to children that we, as a community and government, are committed to expanding the message of building resilience and making safe and healthy choices.
Throughout May, Resilient Utah will connect with parents through public, charter, and homeschool channels, share resources and tools with school administrators and teachers, and celebrate what they have learned about resiliency during the year. Resilient Utah will also encourage the public to participate in the “Wash My Hands Challenge,” and recognize David Osmond as the Resilient Utah Ambassador for 2020.
