Promoting Character Strengths in Schools

To be successful in college and life, students need more than academic skills. They need character skills. If you are a school counselor who is interested in helping students and staff grow character strengths of heart (e.g., kindness), mind (e.g., flexibility), and will (e.g., grit) in your school, but don’t know where to start, you have come to the right workshop. In this workshop, we will discuss ways to implement strategies that will create and sustain ripple effects of well-being in your school. You will leave with resources that will allow your students to not only meet the challenges of today’s changing world, but flourish! Get ready to walk away with meaningful ways to benefit your students, staff, and yourself.
