Urban Girls Revisited : Building Strengths

BookNew York University Press2007Links
Description
Duncan, Smith College Urban Girls, published in 1996, was one of the first volumes to showcase the lives of girls growing up in contexts of urban poverty and sometimes racism and violence. Urban Girls Revisited explores the diversity of urban adolescent girls’ development and the sources of support and resilience that help them to build the foundations of strength that they need as they enter adulthood. In fact, urban girls do often “grow up fast,” taking on multiple adult roles and responsibilities in contexts of high levels of adversities. Yet a majority of these girls show remarkable strengths in the face of challenges, and their families and communities provide many assets to support their development.
