Abstract #273
Thrive
Presenter: Andraya Macmillan 
Abstract:
As a result of the growing number of youth struggling with mental health issues in our community, Rebound has created a resiliency based group to support youth in attaining the required non-cognitive skills to cope with real life issues such as disappointment, rejection, boredom and increase skills in the areas of persistence, self-determination, mindfulness. We use volunteers and staff to coach youth in a safe, supportive environment where new ways of thinking and coping can be practiced and reinforced. Youth leave the THRIVE program more self-confident and assured of their value to friends, family and our community.
