RADS: Relational Warmth as a Protective Factor

About the event

This talk explores how positive connections—especially feelings of warmth from family and other trusted adults—can protect young heterosexual and sexual minority adults from the risks of alcohol use disorder. Drawing from one of the largest U.S. youth cohorts, Dr. Truong will unpack how resilience does not just come from avoiding harm, but from the healing power of human connection.
