Building resiliency using a comprehensive, integrated approach is the fundamental goal of the Folium, Inc.
Resiliency is the attribute, the concept, the process that epitomizes and operationalizes the strengths perspective. Resiliency combines the interaction of two conditions:
Risk Factors
Protective Factors
Protective Factors
Stressful life events or adverse environmental conditions that increase the vulnerability of individuals
Protective Factors
Protective Factors
Protective Factors
Personal, familial, and community factors that buffer, moderate, and protect against those in vulnerabilities
Predominance of protective factors enable sustained competent functioning even in the presence of major life stressors. One’s level of resiliency varies over the lifetime; it is an attribute that varies based on combination of factors present at a point in time. Adversity is additive over time and decreases likelihood of resiliency.
