Strengthening resilience in the aftermath of adversity: evaluation of the group-based intervention Mind-Spring, a naturalistic mixed-methods study among refugee groups in the Netherlands

MS is a feasible, acceptable, and culturally meaningful intervention for resettling refugees, associated with improvements in resilience, well-being, life satisfaction, and sense of coherence. Despite limitations related to sample size and demographic skew, findings add to the evidence base for culturally adapted psychosocial interventions, supporting MS as a promising component within broader refugee integration and mental health services.
