LSPA General Meeting/CRG Parent Forum
Wednesday, 3/6/2013, 7:00 PM

Join us for a continued discussion on Grit for Girls with Drs. Damour and Cordiano. Learn more about what the research tells us on how to build grit in girls and raise resilient daughters.

Recent research reveals that Grit, the ability to recover from setbacks and cope effectively with stress, may be equally essential to success as talent or intelligence. Specifically, we will learn about the fortifying effects of relationships, self care and a sense of purpose. 

Please feel free to invite your friends and neighbors to this informative evening!
