Hispanic immigrants living in the United States are found to have high levels of mental illness, high levels of exposure to trauma, and low mental health service utilization. Those who meet the criteria for asylum, and experience trauma before migrating, are also vulnerable to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms. Higher levels of trauma-related symptoms, in turn, are associated with increased post-migration living difficulties. Despite a need for mental health treatment for Hispanic immigrants living in the United States, cultural and structural barriers to care make accessing this treatment challenging.
