Increasing numbers of young people are struggling through school and life with serious emotional and social needs that greatly challenge schools and welfare agencies. Bullying, low self esteem, depression, youth suicide, and drug abuse are major issues. The Bounce Back! classroom resiliency program offers practical strategies to help all young people cope with the complexity of their everyday lives and learn to bounce back when they experience sadness, difficulties, frustrations and hard times.

The program comprises a teachers handbook and three teachers resource books: junior primary; middle primary; upper primary to junior secondary. Together, these classroom resources offer schools (and other community agencies) a comprehensive program for enhancing student resilience (and teacher resilience too!).
