Nan Henderson Biography and List of Presentations for Nan Henderson, M.S.W., Speaker, Author, and President of Resiliency In Action

Nan Henderson, M.S.W., is an national and international speaker and consultant on fostering resiliency, positive youth development, and effective personal and organizational change. She has presented these topics for the past 17 years at national conferences, international trainings, and for hundreds of state and local departments of education, social service providers, and parent organizations. In 1997, at the request of the Colorado Department of Education, she developed The Resiliency Training Program, a one-of-a-kind training of trainers, which has been attended by educators and other helping professionals from across the U.S. and other parts of the world.

Ms. Henderson has been on the faculty of six colleges and universities as an instructor in alcohol and drug studies, psychology, and counseling. She has also directed citywide, districtwide, and statewide prevention and student assistance programs, and has provided treatment and counseling services to youth, adults, and families. She is the coauthor/editor of five books and a pamphlet related to fostering resiliency: Resiliency In Schools: Making It Happen for Students and Educators (1996); Resiliency In Action: Practical Ideas for Overcoming Risks and Building Strengths in Youth, Families, & Communities (1999); Schoolwide Approaches for Fostering Resiliency (2000); Mentoring for Resiliency (2000) and Four Steps to Resiliency (2000). She cofounded Resiliency In Action, Inc., a publishing company, with Bonnie Benard and Nancy Sharp-Light to further the goal of shifting the national emphasis on "risk" and deficits to the recognition of resiliency.
