Abstract

Compared to other racial/ethnic groups, Latino adolescents are at significantly higher risk for depression and suicidality, especially those who reside in rural communities. The present study aims to examine prevalence of depression and suicidality in a sample of rural, Latino adolescents, as well as explore correlates of risk.
