This report presents findings from an exploratory study by the Regional Psychosocial Support Initiative
(REPSSI) and Catholic Relief Services’ Support to Replicable, Innovative Village/Community-level Efforts (STRIVE) Program of vulnerable youth living in and around Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. It describes their demographic characteristics, exposure to stress and trauma, and psychosocial well-being. The report also highlights the relationships between psychosocial well-being outcomes and exposure to stress and trauma, and the differences in psychosocial well-being between males and females, orphaned and nonorphaned youth, and younger and older adolescents. In addition, the report explores the relationships
between exposure to different psychosocial support programs and measures of psychosocial well-being
and distress. The report concludes with program and research implications.
