Activation framework

In the aftermath of the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration and the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences at the National Institutes of Health embarked on a series of collaborative and integrated research projects to increase understanding of the mechanisms by which access to social resources activate and sustain resilience capabilities after disaster.

In addition, the leadership of Edward J. Trapido and Edward S. Glenn Morris from the Emerging Pathogens Institute, University of Florida is greatly appreciated in the implementation of this project.

Introduction Scholarly and programmatic interest in individual and community resilience has grown exponentially over the past fifty years.

Background The Gulf Coast communities of Texas, Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama, and Florida are at risk for significant adverse mental health outcomes as a result of exposure to the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill DWHOS and related persistent stressors from previous adverse events and recurring life challenges.

Open in a separate window. Figure 1. Figure 2. Premises of the Resilience Activation Framework 1. Exposure to harm leads to resource loss, stress, and psychological reactivity Large scale disasters are relatively common events with catastrophic consequences for many people.

Most people are inherently resilient or have the capacity to be resilient Beginning in the s, a distinct and well-established field of resilience research emerged from the discipline of developmental psychology, in which a number of investigators sought to identify the factors and traits that enabled children to achieve appropriate developmental milestones or avoid psychopathology even in the face of adverse circumstances or trauma.

Community resilience attributes interact with individual resilience attributes Community resilience can be defined as the enduring capacity of geographically, politically or affinity-bound communities to define and account for their vulnerabilities to disaster and develop capabilities to prevent, withstand, or mitigate for a traumatic event.

Access to or engagement with social resources can activate resilient attributes Most stress and disaster recovery models argue that people who have access to better social resources or social support are better able to resist the deleterious effect of post-disaster stress. Activation of resilience attributes takes place within the context of a sociocultural milieu Exploring the cultural context of resilience among Gulf Coast communities is intrinsic to the success of public health interventions in promoting and activating resilience across the disaster prone region.

Individual, community and sociocultural milieu can be quantified or measured In individuals, resilience in the face of disaster, adversity, or overwhelming disadvantage is a multi-faceted process. Implications for Behavioral Health The integrated resilience research framework as described provides unique, trans-disciplinary opportunities for behavioral interventions.

Impact on behavioral health intervention policy The National Disaster Management System represents a top-down hierarchical approach to providing aid to communities with support requested from the Federal level by a Governor and subsequently delivered through state and local agencies to individuals in communities.

Conclusion In the aftermath of the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration and the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences at the National Institutes of Health embarked on a series of collaborative and integrated research projects to increase understanding of the mechanisms by which access to social resources activate and sustain resilience capabilities after disaster.
