Identify an adult you know well, such as a family member or close family friend, or even yourself, who experienced and overcame significant adversity as a child or adolescent. For example, the individual may have experienced the death of a parent or sibling, experienced community or school violence, had a mentally ill parent, become a teenage parent, been poor for a number of years, or been removed from the family home for some reason. Briefly describe their childhood/adolescent experience. How did they respond to the event? What factors helped them overcome the event? What was the basis of their resilience?
