Abstract

Resilience is the ability to adjust and cope in an adaptive manner when confronted with adversity while moving forward with optimism and confidence. Support networks in one's environment are crucial in fostering resilience. A program that actively targets resilience in children who stutter, among several other components, is Camp Dream. Speak. Live. It is an evidence-based intensive therapy programme where the goal is not increasing fluency but improving how children feel about their ability to communicate, and decreasing the impact of stuttering on their daily life.
