“Lived Challenges and Getting Through Them: Alaska Native Youth Narratives as a Way to Understand Resilience.” Lisa Wexler, et al. Health Promotion Practice, Vol. 15, No. 1 (January 2014).
What it’s about: Researchers interviewed 20 Alaska Native teens about their everyday struggles and life challenges, how they deal with those struggles and challenges, and what meaning they make of their experiences. The researchers wanted to dispel myths about Alaska Native youth, draw a picture of what life is like for them, and tease out what makes some youth more resilient than others.
