Resumen

Recently arrived Hispanic immigrants who come to the United States are exposed to risks both in their native country and in the U.S. Moreover, many immigrants experience trauma while crossing illegally into the U.S. and are challenged in articulating traumatic events, high rates of binge-drinking, driving without a valid license, and alcohol impaired driving among those who consume alcohol. To support effective interventions against these concerning trends, the Mapping Protocol® can be used to collect an interactive timeline and identify targets related to immigration and resettlement, given the growing need for cultural sensitivity in evaluating clients with a history of relocation and understanding the immigration experience.
