摘要

An important consideration of how groups manage change is reflected in the concept of community resilience. This is particularly relevant given the historical and current issue of Islamophobia as well as policies on US immigration and shifts in community demographics. This chapter reviews community resilience in the above context, explores the roots of how/why problems occur, and gives examples of response within the Muslim community and suggestions for individuals/communities. The material for this chapter includes literature review, the author’s experiences, and roundtable discussions with young Muslim professionals/physicians.
