You've Heard About Resilience, But Have You Heard About PCEs?
Nurturings helps you build Positive Childhood Experiences, or PCEs, pronounced "pieces", which are the foundation of resilience and health. PCEs are powerful antidotes to adversity, and every parent and caregiver can provide them. See what PCEs are all about:
- The New Science of Thriving
- Study: Family Resilience and Connection Promote Flourishing Among US Children, Even Amid Adversity
- Healing in Place: Game on to flip the COVID-19 threat into a positive experience for our children
