Abstract: This study explores the relationship between family functioning and spiritual health in the development of resilience in vulnerable adolescents. A quantitative approach was used with 194 participants between the ages of 10 and 18 in Nuevo León, Mexico, employing standardized instruments such as the Resilience Questionnaire, the FACES-20 Scale, and the Spiritual Health Scale. The findings revealed that family flexibility and spiritual health dimensions related to oneself, and one's environment are key factors explaining 41.4% of the variance in resilience levels. Furthermore, significant correlations were observed between the dimensions studied and resilience subfactors such as empathy, problem-solving, and insight. It is concluded that fostering flexible family dynamics and positive spiritual thinking is essential to strengthening resilience in adolescents and promoting their adaptation to adverse contexts.
