Explore projects in resilience!
These projects focus on understanding how individuals, particularly children and adolescents, adapt and thrive in the face of adversity. These studies explore the protective factors—such as supportive relationships, emotional regulation, coping strategies, and community resources—that promote positive outcomes despite exposure to stress, trauma, or disadvantage. Researchers examine how resilience develops over time and across contexts, including family, school, and neighborhood environments. Projects often take a strengths-based, culturally responsive approach, emphasizing the dynamic and interactive nature of resilience. This research informs interventions, policies, and educational practices aimed at fostering resilience in diverse populations and supporting long-term well-being and success.
