World Mental Health Day

On this #WorldMentalHealthDay, we encourage you to take a moment and think about resilience -- the ability to problem-solve, overcome obstacles, recover from setbacks, and rise above difficulties. REDgen's work is grounded in research showing that learning resilience not only helps prevent crisis but also helps us thrive. 

To learn more, check out these resources from two of the nation's foremost experts on resilience and our REDgen partners: Kenneth Ginsburg, MD, MSEd, and Sheri Glucoft Wong, LCSW.
