Resilience
Hello everyone,
Today I wanted to give you information on a free course that is meant to be a resource for individuals that are looking to understand the triggers of personal, team-wide, organizational, and community stress. The course is put together by the Northwest Center for Public Health Practice. The course is self-paced, online only learning, and “throughout this series, there is a strong emphasis on reflective practice—understanding what has and hasn’t worked for people who have dealt with a lot of stress through their work in public health,” said Kevin deVoss, an Instructional Designer who helped develop the course.
“With help from experts in psychology and emergency and disaster preparedness research, and with a collection of stories from members of the public health workforce, we’ve put together scenarios, audio and video stories, and activities that we hope will give folks a chance to reflect on what resilience means to them and their teams.”

The Resiliency Resources Toolkit, which is a companion to the series, provides a one-stop-shop for resiliency strategies that can be a helpful guide in this process as well.
