La resiliencia en familias que viven la discapacidad, desde un enfoque centrado en la familia

This work is the result of a doctoral research, which purpose is to know how resilience is built in families that live with a child with disabilities. The questions are: How is family resilience built around a child’s disability? What is the dynamic of the family’s system facing disability? What elements of resilience are observed in families that experience disability with a son of their own? The premise of the study is that every family that has a child or sibling with a disability is capable of being resilient, so that the family can face adversity, identify their strengths and empower themselves based on their choices. To assess this claim, a qualitative methodology was applied with a study-case design and in depth interview with five families. Findings support the conclusion that resilience is a dynamic process that manifests itself in families during life.
