The research adopts the process view of family resilience, and views the family as an open system that functions in relation to its broader socio-cultural context and evolves over time. The goal of the research is to document family transformation processes and illuminate family resilience building processes through family narratives. Twelve families were recruited from previous research participants, and the research procedures mainly include two parts, family interviews and family narratives. And, four typical family stories were written up as results to illuminate family resilience building processes in facing with challenges.
Key words: family resilience, family in action, family narrative
