Abstract | Throughout the migratory process, unaccompanied minors from Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras--countries known as the Northern Triangle of Central America--are at great risk for exposure to adverse experiences, loss, and stressors that can have negative consequences on their mental health and well-being. Although the limited research with unaccompanied minors has focused on trauma, acculturative stress, and trauma-informed interventions, little is known about the effects of migratory grief and ambiguous loss on the psychological sequelae of unaccompanied minors and other immigrant youth. Without an opportunity to grieve the loss of family members and other concurrent losses, this marginalized group is left with perpetual ambiguity and confusion that can compound the effects of trauma and stress. In response to ambiguous loss, which is a relational phenomenon that severs important human relationships, school social workers have a unique opportunity to deliver a culturally and trauma-informed intervention that emphasizes the importance of making connections. This article will introduce cultural brokering as an added component of a school-based trauma-informed intervention that can be effective in facilitating relational engagement that fosters resilience among bereaved and trauma-exposed unaccompanied minors.
