Adolescents undergo a lot of crisis during their developmental stage. Early separations from parents, deprivation of parental care, love, security, acceptance and discipline during adolescence have a detrimental effect on the psychological well-being of adolescents. This study explores the relationship between resilience and psychological wellbeing among destitute adolescents. The participants (N=160) consisting of both male (N=80) and female (N=80) adolescents in the age range of 13-17 years, were conveniently selected from various destitute homes in Thiruvananthapuram city, Kerala. Brief Resilience Scale and Psychological Wellbeing Scale were administered to collect the data from the participants. Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis test and Spearman's Rank Correlation method were used to analyze the data. Results revealed statistically significant relationship between the resilience and psychological wellbeing among destitute adolescents. The findings of the study show that adolescents living in destitute homes have low resilience and psychological wellbeing. The study also suggests implications to improve the coping mechanisms and well-being of adolescents in destitute homes.Keywords
