This chapter presents an interview with Vicki Durrant, a single parent who started a program for high-risk Aboriginal youth in Canada who spend most of their time on the street. The innovative program she runs engages hard to reach youth by providing food, shelter, and training to young people with few other resources. Durrant understands that resilience is both a young person's inner qualities and the services and supports that make it possible for that young person to do well.
