dc.description.abstractAdverse childhood experiences and health disparities profoundly affect the health of ethnic minority adolescents and influence their overall well-being. In light of current health disparities and civil unrest, this secondary analysis sought to better understand resilience among ethnic minority adolescents living in rural eastern North Carolina (NC). Using Ungar's (2013) Theory of Resilience and Seven Tensions, the two tensions that depicted the most adversity for these adolescents were social justice and power and control. Racism and discrimination were identified as prevalent risk factors. Four tensions in the model, cultural adherence, identity, cohesion, and access to material resources, were linked to protective factors and represented ethnocultural pride. Findings suggest that rural-dwelling African American and Latinx adolescents share concerns related to racial adversity but navigate their ecological experiences in unique ways.en_US
