Centering U.S. Rural, Immigrant Latinx Adolescent Voices Through Narrative Mapping: Exploring a Novel Approach to Communicated Narrative Sense-Making
In the current study, we explore how rural immigrant Latinx adolescents make sense of and cope with their experiences through narrative mapping.

We theoretically ground our study in narrative resilience via communicated narrative sense-making (CNSM) theory’s translational storytel…
