Book Overview

In an effort to effectively study, understand, and serve the fastest growing U.S. ethnic minority population, this book is an up-to-date reference that explicitly emphasizes the racial and ethnic diversity within this heterogeneous cultural group. The complexities inherent in the diverse Latino/a experience, as specified throughout the topics covered in this volume, become critical elements of culturally responsive and racially conscious mental health treatment approaches.
