GSC Protective Factors Resource Page

As we train community partners in the Protective Factors and show the Resilience film throughout the community, we are often asked for links to our tools and resources.

We are pleased to share with you our "GSC Protective Factors Resource Page" on our website. This is a work in progress, so please send us your helpful resources that you come across related to trauma, toxic stress or the protective factors.
