To estimate the efficacy of a structured, scalable and replicable psychosocial intervention
 targeting refugees living in Jordan, Amman who have been forced to flee their homes due to
 regional conflicts.
The study is designed to examine the effects of the Mindfulness Resiliency Training Program
 (MRTP) conducted at Collateral Repair Project (CRP) on the resilience of refugees. The study

 described above will be used:

 degree of traumatization and

 Resiliency Measure (ARM-12) (for adults) as a measure of resiliency
