Working with Lebanese refugees in a community resilience model
A community resilience model suitable for working with refugee families from Southern Lebanon is presented. Individual resilience can determine how a refugee deals with trauma, but for dealing with long-term stress, community resilience has a significant influence on lives. Working with a community resilience model helps to focus on important issues that can help refugees deal with the major changes in their circumstances. Families of the former South Lebanese (SLA) Army, after several years in Israel, are having a difficult time handling their present situation and preparing for their future. The difficulty has to do with a long grieving process due to forced migration. Despite material assistance greater than most refugees around the world, their emotional state remains that of one who has lost their home. Our work is described as strengthening certain community resilience components that have been hurt as a result of forced migration to Israel. By addressing those components we can help these refugees handle the grief process better and faster and better prepare them for a more optimistic future.
