Spiritual Resilience is an animating force that is strengthened through hardship, flourishes amidst adversity and occurs at the interface of individual and community. When we put action to decisions rooted in gratitude and character, we move our intention into the world around us and build spiritual resilience. This practice is delivered through a structured program we call The Road to Resilience.
