Village: Mental Health, Post-traumatic Growth, and Resilience

Life often presents us with challenges that shake the very foundation of our mental and emotional well-being. Whether it’s navigating personal loss, facing unexpected adversity, or adapting to significant changes in our communities, the road to healing can feel overwhelming. Yet, in these moments of hardship, we often find the opportunity for growth. This concept, known as Posttraumatic Growth (PTG), reflects how individuals and communities rebuild themselves in the face of adversity—emerging stronger, more resilient, and more connected.
