The goal of this coloring page is  to help young people in building their resilience, optimism and emotional intelligence.  This is a great tool to get kids talking about decisions they have made and what they relied on to make them. Getting kids to open up is increasingly important in an age when they face stress beyond their ability to cope without some assistance.
