Health Inequities within the Latin and Asian Immigrants Populations

AJPH's Vickie Mays and Alfredo Morabia had an in-person conversation in Atlanta with Dr. Maria Elena Trinidad Young about her work comparing the health status of Latin and Asiatic immigrants in California. From the results of the RIGHTS (Research on Immigrant Health and State Policy) Study we discuss the experiences of immigrants in the areas of health care, social services, employment, education and law enforcement and how these experiences have had an impact on their health and access to health care.
