Expanding Culturally Responsive Mental Health Care: Diversity among Hispanic/Latinx Youth and Families

Ethnic, spiritual, racial, gender, sexual orientation, and values/tradition all intersect and need to be pondered. Hispanic/Latinx families have higher barriers to access care than Non-Hispanic/Latinx families in many instances due to the higher frequency of poor social determinants of health.
