Find out how we can help our children bounce back from life's challenges by changing the way we think about disappointment and adversity.

Dr. Ken Ginsburg aims to start a national dialogue among parents and children of all ages to redefine perceptions of success and evaluate the significant physical and emotional damage that everyday pressures can have on development.  He seeks to create strategies to raise resilient children who are capable of dealing with difficulties and who learn from personal defeat.

Using humor, real-life scenarios and poignant cases, Dr. Ginsburg teaches how to raise resilient children who can manage stress, problem-solve and move forward with hope for themselves and the world.  His unique perspective emphasizes the developmental strengths of youth, and equipping participants with skills needed to help kids help themselves.  He offers practical, concrete strategies for developing the Seven C's: Competence, Confidence, Connection, Character, Contribution, Coping & Control.
