About this title

Synopsis

As a result of the dual pandemics (COVID-19 and an international reckoning around social and racial inequity), youth have experienced an immense amount of collective trauma and disconnectedness from school, workforce, and other educational pipelines. Resilient Futures: Addressing Collective Trauma and Marginalization in Out-of-School Time Spaces explores how, throughout this tumultuous time, Out-of-School Time spaces have served and will continue to serve as an important nurturing and protective space for youth development and voice.

In this ninth book in our series, we examine how youth and practitioners are addressing the collective trauma and opportunity facing this generation of young people. While all young people are experiencing a level of marginalization, we seek narratives and bright-spot practices that are being used to address the challenges facing:

• BIPOC Youth: young people who identify as American Indian, Native American or Alaska Native, Indigenous, Asian, Black or African American, Hispanic or Latino/a, Middle Eastern or North African, Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander
• Opportunity Youth: young people ages 16–24 who are neither enrolled nor participating in the labor market
• LGBTQIA+ Youth: young people who identify as members of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer/Questioning, Intersex, and Asexual communities
• Undocumented, First Generation, and Refugee Youth
• Youth from a Range of Ability and Disability Statuses
• Youth from Low-Resourced Backgrounds and Communities (including rural, urban, and suburban communities that are marginalized, impoverished, or oppressed)
• Youth experiencing housing instability

This volume includes local, national, regional, and scalable examples of programs, delivery models, research, and policies that support accessible, equitable, sustainable, and quality programming.
