Negative Life Stressors, Depression and Resilience in a High-Risk Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Population Sun,

Introduction Despite an increased risk of mental illness following negative stressful life events, many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are able to adapt with minimal life disruption. Voices United for Harmony project is a joint initiative of Griffith University and Queensland Aboriginal and Islander Health Council. Through this project, this presentation aims to examine psychosocial factors associated with depression in a high-risk sample of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander adults exposed to a range of life stressors.
