About PRP@ND
College can be a difficult time. Whether it be your studies, relationships, or even just your daily routine, being resilient is important when there’s a lot on your plate.
The Penn Resilience Program at Notre Dame (PRP@ND) is being offered for the first time to the entire Notre Dame campus this Spring. PRP@ND is an evidence-based training program that has been demonstrated to build resilience, well-being, and optimism.
We’ll cover topics to help you be resilient both in and out of the classroom, such as:
- Building blocks of resilience
- Strategies of optimism
- Thinking traps and what triggers them
- Effects of catastrophizing and common reactions
About the Trainings
Trainings are being offered for both students and faculty & staff this semester. A variety of training lengths are available. You must attend each of the trainings in the sessions you choose for the best training experience.
