Originally a concept developed in the 1950's, resiliency refers to the ability of most youth to thrive despite adverse life circumstances. Volume 10(1) of The Prevention Researcher looks at the concept of resiliency and the differences between risk and protective factors. This issue looks at the role of resiliency in violent behavior, how resiliency may be different for African American youth, and ways that service providers can incorporate resiliency into their work with youth.
