Project Resilience: Becoming Resilient By Overcoming Resistance
The award-winning UPR production team and Utah State University's Center for Persons with Disabilities present Project Resilience, a yearlong storytelling project created for any of us hoping to find ways to bounce back, recover, and develop our mental abilities. The stories found in the series hope to encourage social and personal resilience by introducing listeners to neighbors and friends who have experienced assault, personal loss, bullying, mental health challenges, and other tragedies.
