In this episode, Drew and Lizette speak to Roberto L. Abreu (he/him/él) who is an assistant professor of Counseling Psychology and the director of the Collective Healing and Empowering VoicEs through Research and Engagement (¡Chévere!) in the Department of Psychology at the University of Florida (UF). We were so excited to talk about Roberto's research, and how his research explores the ways in which marginalized communities resist systemic oppression and promote bienestar colectivo (collective well-being), with a particular focus on the experiences of trans and queer people and their families and communities. This is an important episode about how research can teach us how to understand resiliency, as well as highlight the ways in which harmful policies actually impact marginalized communities and families.
