Intro to Healthy Outcomes from Positive Experiences (HOPE)

Description

Research shows that positive childhood experiences (PCEs) help children grow into healthy, resilient adults. The HOPE National Resource Center developed the strengths-based HOPE framework to help professionals promote PCEs and better support children and families. The center of the HOPE framework is the Four Building Blocks of HOPE, the key types of positive childhood experiences that all children need to thrive.

The HOPE National Resource Center offers trainings, tools, and research to help professionals promote PCEs through the HOPE framework. Our HOPE Train the Facilitator Certification is designed for those working directly with children and families, from early childhood and education to child welfare, juvenile justice, public health, and healthcare. By using the HOPE framework, you help build a world where every child’s strengths are seen, supported, and celebrated.
