This theoretical reflections paper emphasizes the importance of strengths-based approaches, intersectionality, and culturally responsive trauma-informed care to promote positive developmental outcomes for Black youth and their families in child-protective services and the juvenile justice system. We emphasize the importance of promoting psychological well-being, facilitated by prosocial relationships, to mitigate the impact of trauma and adverse childhood experiences. We highlight the need to apply the framework of intersectionality in practice and policy reform to improve outcomes using culturally and gender-responsive approaches. This study sheds light on the disparities, challenges, and opportunities for intervention among Black youth and their families at-risk of, and currently involved with, child-serving systems. Special consideration is given to the structural issues that uniquely impact the lives of Black youth and their families to transform current practices and policies within child-serving systems
