Article Synopsis
- Immigration is a significant issue in the U.S., especially for Latinx immigrants who face increased threats like deportation and detention; understanding these challenges requires a broader view beyond just migration phases.
- The Immigrant Well-being Project, launched in New Mexico in 2017, aimed to improve Latinx immigrant mental health and integration by studying the experiences of 24 immigrants through community-based research.
- The study revealed five different paths of immigrant integration, shaped by personal circumstances and community support, but also showed that community organizations couldn't fully protect immigrants from the negative impacts of a hostile environment.
