The foundations of resilience research are embedded in psychology; however, the concept has been adopted in many other areas. Moreover, the multifaceted and diverse field of resilience has become more prevalent in disaster response literature but is confusing in the different ways defined and applied. This presentation will clarify the concept of resilience and develop a helpful dialogue about better ways to assist those experiencing disaster. If communities want to survive, recover, and thrive in the aftermath of disaster events, we need to begin with helping individuals and organizations in understanding resilience.
