Resiliency Unmasked: The Impact of Grief, Trauma, and Secondary Adversities for Youth in Rural Communities

This presentation will explore the "resiliency myth" in relation to youth impacted by grief, trauma, and other adverse childhood experiences with a focus on youth living in rural communities. The presentation will also highlight the inequities in the availability of comprehensive service delivery networks for this population. Participants will be provided with best-practice interventions through the lens of trauma-informed practice and stakeholder collaboration.
