Abstract
This article describes survivors' family dynamics before, during, and after the Nazi Holocaust. Demographics and the Danieli Typology were used to explore family dynamics among the full sample. The researcher constructed a family resilience template, synthesizing the assumptions of ecological, family systems, and risk and resilience theories about family adaptability, to guide the analysis of interview transcripts. The survivors' own words became the vehicle for illustrating themes of family and family-like interactions.
