Cultural Resilience in North American Indian First Nations: The Story of Little Turtle.

Angell, G. Brent

Critical Social Work, v1 n1 Spr 2000

Protective factors, needed for personal resilience, vary from culture to culture. Resilience in Native Americans is examined via an interview with a Native American social worker who quit her job over an ethical conflict. The interplay of self-concept, family, and culture in young people's development of protective factors is examined. Implications for practice are discussed. (Contains 27 references.) (TD)
