Creating strong bonds and meaningful connections and relationships will help the children and youth in your life thrive! Créez des liens significatifs avec les enfants et les jeunes. C’est un élément clé de l’épanouissement.

The way we encourage, or praise children and youth can really impact their thinking, confidence, and motivation. Notre manière d’encourager ou de louanger les enfants et les jeunes peut vraiment influer sur leur façon de penser, leur confiance et leur motivation.

Did you know that eye contact is an important form of communication and helps to build relationships? Making eye contact creates a connection, builds trust, increases empathy, and shows that you are attentive.

Caring adults who shift their thinking from what’s wrong to what’s strong, can help children and youth feel hopeful. Connect with the children and youth in your life, by drawing upon their character strengths and growing their sense of hope.

Give a word of encouragement to a child or youth today! For example, say “I know you’ve got what it takes” to foster a stronger connection and help them to see their potential.
