It reviews common stressors experienced by refugees, information about the concept of resilience, aspects of culturally responsive health care, and clinical recommendations. In addition, 3 cases are presented that highlight both resiliencies of refugee families and successful interventions by pediatric health care providers within the pediatric refugee clinic at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.
