Abstract

Latinx adolescents living in U.S. neighborhoods struggling with financial security and concern over immigration policies face challenges in finding supportive academic and social environments. This community-based research shows how collaboration and conversation with adolescents, their families, and college students can work towards improving adolescents’ sense of self.
