The document discusses the concepts of resilience at both the individual and family level. Resilience allows people and families to bounce back from stress and adversity by giving them the strength to tackle problems and move forward in a positive manner. Key processes that promote family resilience include having a strong belief system that provides purpose and meaning, demonstrating effective organizational patterns, and engaging in open communication and collaborative problem solving.
