Stories that Shape Us

Narratives of Intergenerational Resilience and Chinese Canadian Families

by Fred ChouCarmen HuangMikaela ChiaWendy Ma

This book covers stories of intergenerational resilience in Chinese Canadian families, how these stories were cultivated, and reflections from the researchers and participants involved in this project. Together with four family dyads, individual and family stories were developed using a collaborative research process.

The stories presented here are holistic and written in a manner that strives to honour the voices of the participants. Not only were these stories imparted to us as researchers to witness and co-develop, these stories were also shared within the family dyads—a process of witnessing that is represented in this book.
