Welcome to all of our Community Partners that are working to support and build resilience in Harnett County! The Resilience Initiative Harnett County was created after our community viewing of the Resilience Film and a follow-up Community Cafe.
The overall goal of Resilience Initiative Harnett County is to bring together individuals, agencies, and organizations that will play an important role in building a strong resilient community.
It is times such as these that call on people and communities to have resilience and strength to meet problems head on. As a community we can help lead the way.

COMMUNITY CAFÉ
March 5th, 2020 was our first in person Community Cafe. Together we developed 2 goals or focus areas from the recurring themes.
- Develop a resource document for the community that can be shared, and updated as needed. This document went live soon after. It can be found here:
- Bring awareness to Harnett County about the following: resilience, adverse childhood experiences (ACE's), trauma-informed care, and information concerning brain development.
August 27th, 2020 was our second community cafe and our first using a virtual platform. The following goals and focus areas came from this meeting.
- Building a rich, diverse, and inclusive resilient collaborative. A Goggle Doc was created to build a list of organizations and agencies that should be at the table. You are encouraged to visit this document and add names of individuals and their contact information. The goggle doc can be found here. The purpose of the document is to connect with others across our large county.
- Develop a mission and vision statement for the Resilience Initiative.

One of the goals from the Community Cafe was to build a 2-page resource document. This resource could be used by the community of individuals working with families and children. This document has a list of resources that are often requested by families.
The resource can be accessed from the tab to the left.
This resource document is a living document and it will take the entire community to help keep it up-to-date.
It is recommended that you keep a copy of the PDF on your desktop or print out a hard copy. Keep it handy as you work with our Harnett County families.
