Abstract Abstract This study sought to examine issues of risk and resilience among African-American youth living in low-income, violent neighborhoods. Howard (1996) developed a theoretical model to illustrate the interactions among various risk and protective factors that influence the well-being of African-American adolescents. The purpose of this study was to examine a model based on this work, with a sample consisting of 142 urban African-American 5th-8th grade students, using path analysis. The model was found to be an excellent fit with the data. Findings from this theoretically-based study are discussed within the context of resilience research and implications for intervention.
