The Resilient Families Program
The Resilient Families Program is a community-based model for strengthening children’s resiliency by focusing on attachment, executive functioning skills and stress reduction in families with infants. The curriculum was developed by Dr. Barbara Burns, a developmental psychologist and Santa Clara University professor. The aim of the project is healthier family functioning among low-income families with infants, as well as promising research results in the fields of psychology and child development.
