Resilience Story Slam

Join us for the second annual Resilience Story Slam!

Jefferson faculty and students share stories that address the critical role of resilience for health professionals. How can we find the balance between the profound meaning and joy that come from providing care and the stresses of caregiving?

Story Slams involve a series of speakers presenting five-minute stories that revolve around a particular theme. This interdisciplinary event will showcase perspectives from a variety of health professions.

Refreshments will be served prior to the Story Slam from 4:30-5 p.m.
