I partnered with EdLinks knowing that they would have great ideas and be able to bring my movie and its messages of creativity, innovation, and play to schools, businesses, and sports. Sara Truebridge is passionate and smart and is able to deftly navigate the education field to help expose important ideas to that community and broader.

We partnered with EdLinks for our 361Foundation kickoff event. It was a great success! The best part was that I could completely trust Sara and d’Alary to represent our 361Firm and its members professionally. Sara's and d’Alary's ideas, collaboration, and execution is unparalleled. I look forward to partnering with them again.

In this book, Sara provides clear tools, techniques, and strategies that can actually take something as elusive as beliefs and make it something understandable and embraceable in a concrete context. Furthermore, this book is not only written for teachers but also for educators, administrators, and policymakers in education at all levels—federal, state, and local. In fact, I feel that this book would be a beneficial resource for anyone working within any human service system.

PROMOTING THE CONCEPT OF RESILIENCE BASED PRACTICE NATIONALLY AND INTERNATIONALLY.
Resilience Begins with Beliefs is a splendid book that is strongly recommended for anyone involved in, or even just interested in, education. It is research based but also immensely practical and very engagingly written. Major environmental positives that apply to schools, as well as to other settings, are caring relationships, high expectations, and opportunities to participate, contribute, and take responsibility. This book integrates all of this in a most interesting and helpful way. It is a marvelous achievement.

Truebridge has provided a gift to the field, bridging scientific evidence with everyday practice in schools toward maximizing resilience. She eloquently describes the enormous potential of authentic, caring relationships with teachers, and the critical need for teachers to be supported themselves in their ‘caretaking roles.’ With specific implementation directions provided, this is a must-read for educators at all levels of children’s development, from preschool through the end of high school.
