Bridges to Resilience
The annual Bridges to Resilience conference is a celebration of community that strengthens collaboration throughout California’s coastal tri-counties. Since 2016, the conference has focused on increasing awareness about the widespread impacts of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and the hopeful strategies that build resilience within families, communities, and systems of care. Each year, participants from Ventura, Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo counties engage in an interactive and dynamic day of education, resource sharing and connection.
The theme for 2024 is Hope, Inclusion, and Wellbeing. Building on last year’s keynote about Healthy Outcomes from Positive Experiences, this year’s sessions will take a deeper look at inclusion and belonging, pathways to healing, and strategies for disrupting adversity and preventing intergenerational trauma.
Conference Learning Objectives & Attendees:
-
Identify systemic barriers to belonging and inclusion that disrupt community wellbeing
-
Transform resiliency practices, focusing on positive experiences that support healthy outcomes and reduce toxic stress
-
Generate community-led solutions that align with the diversity of identities, challenges and resources within the Coastal Tri-Counties
-
Create conditions for positive change through connection, reflection, and shared learning
Bridges to Resilience 2024 returns to an in-person format and will include simultaneous interpretation of keynote sessions in both Spanish and Mixteco. For the first time, Spanish language breakout sessions will also be offered. Attendees will include community leaders, community organizers, and community care providers from human services, healthcare, education, justice, behavioral health, philanthropy, and the faith community.
