Abstract

Many students, families and community members have gone through tremendous changes in the 1980s. The economic and social upheaval of the rural debt crisis of this decade, though put to death by many, continues to impact our rural systems. While many rural youth have experienced major losses direct (change in residence, working status of parents, role changes within the family), some have experienced those changes indirectly (friends exiting communities, discussions of school/church closing). What is unknown to school personnel and helping professionals is the extent of which the changes of the 80s have been processed by children or the extent to which these changes continue to impact the lives of children.
