Support Your Educators with RIRO Resilience Training
Reaching IN… Reaching OUT (RIRO) is a nationally recognized, evidence-based resilience skills training program developed in Canada for adults who work with young children. It was created by a team of psychologists, researchers, and early childhood professionals to help adults build the emotional and cognitive skills needed to manage stress, model resilience, and support the development of resilience in children.
Alberta’s Dayhome Support Network offers closed group RIRO training for agencies with 8 or more educators.
To request a private group training for your agency, please fill out our interest form below.
Public Intakes Also Available
If you aren’t able to gather a group of 8 ECE’s, we also offer regular public intakes for educators. These are open intakes where providers from all over Alberta can join.
RIRO isn’t just professional development — it’s a long-term investment in the strength and stability of your educators.
RIRO Helps Your Educators:
Build emotional resilience and reduce burnout
Strengthen relationships with children and parents
Improve behaviour guidance strategies
Foster a reflective, professional mindset
Feel more connected and capable in their roles
Why choose RIRO facilitated by ADSN?
While RIRO is designed for all early childhood professionals, ADSN delivers the training through the lens of dayhome work. That means every example, discussion, and reflection is grounded in real dayhome situations — from managing mixed-age groups and long solo days to navigating parent relationships and emotional exhaustion.
Program Delivery:
RIRO is delivered live over Zoom in a small-group format that’s flexible, interactive, and designed with dayhome life in mind. Evening sessions make it easy for educators to attend after hours without added stress.
Length: 6 Sessions
Schedule: 2.5 hours per session, in the evening
Location: Online via Zoom
Group Size: Maximum 20 educators per cohort
