School psychologists are active and vocal advocates for students to ensure they receive the appropriate supports needed for them to thrive. Assessments often lead to uncovering of disabilities/personal weaknesses/deficiencies. How much time do we spend focusing on what the student CAN do? What are their strengths? How can we build on those to foster a sense of optimism when a student is met with challenges or obstacles? How do we build resiliency? How do we use the spirit of POSSIBILITY to move students forward from a position of strength? The answer can be found within the realm of Positive Psychology. In addition, the presenter will provide an update of NASP activities and resources.
