  Unaccompanied migrant youth, fleeing to a new country without their parents,
are exposed to mental health risks. Resilience interventions mitigate such
risks, but access can be hindered by systemic and personal barriers. While much
work has recently addressed designing technology to promote mental health, none
has focused on the needs of these populations. This paper presents the results
of interviews with 18 professional/ volunteer support workers and 5
unaccompanied migrant youths, followed by three design workshops. The results
point to the diverse systems that can facilitate youths' resilience
development. The relationship between the youth and volunteers acting as
mentors is particularly important for increasing resilience but comes with
challenges. This suggests the relevance of a social-ecological model of
resilience with a focus on designing technology to support the mentors in order
to help them better support the youth. We conclude by mapping out the design
space for mentor support.
