Reflecting Strengths is an inspired collection of 35 stories and reflections on fostering resilience in children and young people through a strengths-focused perspective. Whether you are an educator, social worker, parent, or mentor, these reflections will empower you to see the young people in your life through the lens of their strengths vs their deficits - and know what to do next. Each reflection is followed by questions and exercises that can be used for meditation, discussion, and study.

Collectively, these stories are an inspired short-course on shifting your focus from fixing what is wrong to growing what is right. Individually, they are daily meditations, discussion starters, training tools, and reminders that "where we focus, grows."

"He says it's about kids, but it's really about life." These were the words most often spoken as the first edition was passed from person to person. In this second edition, Chris has added 14 new reflections that will inspire and challenge you - personally and professionally.

From the back cover: "What a gift! From the first words ("bring it on") to the last ("and we thrive"), Chris speaks with an authenticity and insight that can only come from having walked the walk. I wish every adult who parents, cares for, or supports young people - and everyone who has known adversity - could experience the inspiration, insights, and hope that fills this book. Inspired!" ~ Misty Stenslie, founder, Foster Care Alumni of America
