Enabling Resilience (PI: Professor Jane Gray)
The 'Enabling Resilience' project is examining the experiences and resilience practices of low-income families receiving Family Income Supplement (FIS) and other in-work supports using a mixed method biographical approach. The project aims to develop an in-depth understanding of the extent to which FIS and other in-work supports promote resilience amongst low-income families; to compare the lived experience of low-income families receiving FIS with those of other families experiencing adversity; and to identify additional resources and supports that may be required to promote families' capacities for resilience over time.
