Characteristics of rural American Indian/Alaska Natives (AI/AN) are highlighted with particular attention to reservations which are located predominantly in rural areas. The historical trauma model is provided as a framework for understanding the causes behind high levels of some adjustment problems of AI/AN adolescents today. Of primary interest in this chapter is examination of theory and research on potential protective roles of school, community, and cultural forms of social connectedness relative to adjustment outcomes of rural AI/AN youth. Social connections are implicit components of resilience models and resonate with several theoretical frameworks and views on AI/AN well-being. The chapter concludes with summarizing comments including recommendations for future research on the topic.
