Mission Statement: The mission of this series is to bring issues of diversity and educational risk to the forefront of national attention in order to assist the nation's diverse students at risk of educational failure to achieve academic excellence.

Each volume will include empirical studies and syntheses of research that provide an integrated view of the emerging body of research within areas such as: (a) language learning and academic achievement, (b) professional development, (c) family, peers, schools, and communities, (d) instruction in context, and (e) integrated school reform. In order to inform scholars, practitioners, and policy makers, each volume will provide fundamental knowledge about effective programs and practices that affect students place at risk through linguistic, racial, economic, and geographic diversity. Some volumes will be written by one or two authors on a given aspect of educational diversity. Most, however, will be edited, thematic works with chapters written by several experts in various aspects of the volume's theme. This volume will contain conceptual articles, research syntheses, and research studies in the area of educational resiliency. Current resiliency research from the US Department of Education's National Research Centers (e.g., Center for Research on Education, Diversity, and Excellence. Center for Research on Students Placed at Risk) and Regional Laboratory's (e.g., Laboratory for Student Success) will be featured in this volume. The book will focus on promoting resiliency from the multi-level perspectives of students, teachers, and students.
