EveryDay Strong

A new approach to anxiety and depression

YOU CAN START BUILDING EVERYDAY RESILIENCE BY FOSTERING SAFETY, CONNECTION, AND CONFIDENCE IN THE CHILDREN AROUND YOU

We’re on a mission to build resilient kids and strong communities
United Way has collaborated with a group of experts on anxiety, depression, and psychological well-being to develop these activities for you.
The EveryDay Strong panel of experts includes medical professionals, educators, social workers, and mental health specialists.
Research from the Center for the Developing Child at Harvard University shows that the most common factor in a child’s ability to develop resilience is a caring, supportive relationship with at least one adult. This might be a parent but it can also be any caring adult, including grandparents, teachers, friends, and neighbors.

EveryDay Strong Resilience Training shares strategies for:

• How to get your child to talk to you
• How to ask your teenager questions that improve your relationship (without causing them to shut down)
• Simple ideas to support your teen’s motivation and emotional support
