Resilience and the Internationally Mobile Family: Navigating Changes and Transitions

The process of international relocation can be an exciting, empowering, and fascinating life experience. Or, it can be an emotionally volatile situation for family members that may adversely impact personal wellbeing, marital relationships, and/or children's behavioral and school adjustment. In Resilience and the Internationally Mobile Family, authors Dr. William G. Nicoll and Dr. Peggy Pelonis assist international families, as well as international school educators and employers, in better understanding the internationally mobile family experience. The resilience building model outlined in this book enables parents, youth, schools, and employers to better understand the process of change. It provides practical skills and strategies for successfully navigating the international transition process and realizing a positive, life-changing, and life-enriching experience. co-author Third Culture Kids: Growing Up Among Worlds, 3rd edition,co-founder, Families in Global Transition East Asia Regional Council of Overseas Schools (EARCOS) Professor Emeritus, University of Bath, UK. author and educator
