ABSTRACT African American youth and African refugee youth encounter systemic racism in similar yet different ways. Because of the inherent traumatic experiences encountered by refugee youth, the added discrimination during their acculturation processes elevates their trauma and stressor-related symptoms. This paper uses the Posttraumatic Growth Model to explore some steps in facilitating an 8-week group therapy for African refugee youth in the US school system. Culturally-sensitive recommendations are also provided.

使用创伤后成长模型探索与非洲难民青年小组合作中的创伤叙事

摘要 非裔美国青年和非洲难民青年以相似但不同的方式遭遇系统性种族主义。由于难民青年遇到的内在创伤经历，在他们的文化适应过程中增加的歧视会加剧他们的创伤和压力相关症状。本文使用创伤后成长模型来探索在美国学校系统中为非洲难民青年提供为期 8 周的团体治疗的一些步骤。还提供了具有文化敏感性的建议。
