In frightening and uncertain times, it’s hard to feel hopeful. But studies show that having hope for the future helps build our resilience—the ability to get through tough times and recover more quickly from setbacks.
Moreover, hope can help ward off or reduce anxiety, trauma, and depression.

How HOPE Impacts Mental Health in Young People
A recent review of the research on hope and mental health looked at 20 studies involving college students, who suffer from high rates of depression, anxiety, and distress. The study authors synthesized the research, conducted over the last decade. Hence, they found five major themes regarding the role hope plays in young people’s mental health:
-
Hope is associated with improved coping
-
Improved well-being is also associated with hope
-
Depression and negative life events are less intense for those who are more hopeful
-
Having hope is a protective factor against suicide and negative, self-deprecatory thinking
-
A hopeful person is more likely to engage in healthy behaviors.

Research on gratitude shows that it is more effective than self-control, patience, or forgivingness in creating hope for the future. Try keeping a gratitude journal in which you list big and small things you’re grateful for each day. Or, at the end of every day, think back on three things you were grateful for. Families can do a gratitude practice together during meals, by going around the table and each sharing one thing you’re thankful for.

“It is relationships, not programs, that change children. A great program simply creates an environment for healthy relationships to form between adults and children. Young people thrive when adults care about them on a one-to-one level, and when they also have a sense of belonging to a caring community. ”
