Focusing on resilience as a social construct, this groundbreaking work presents a comprehensive theory and practical model tailored for high-risk youth in various settings. Michael Ungar delves into the lives of those labeled as dangerous or delinquent, revealing how they narrate their experiences to foster well-being and gain control. Through case studies, he highlights their strategic choices, such as gang involvement and substance use, as means of self-empowerment. This timely text challenges conventional views of troubled youth, advocating for an intervention approach that builds on their unique resilience narratives.
