TY - JOUR PY - 2011// TI - Community-based applied research with Latino immigrant families: Informing practice and research according to ethical and social justice principles JO - Family Process A1 - Baumann, Ana A1 - Parra-Cardona, Jose Ruben A1 - Domenech RodrÃguez, Melanie M. SP - 132 EP - 148 VL - 50 IS - 2 N2 - This manuscript describes the implementation of two community-based programs of research with Latino immigrant populations exposed to intense contextual challenges. We provide background on our program of research and specific implementation of an evidence-based parenting intervention. We also describe how our research efforts were seriously affected by immigration-related events such as the ICE raids in Utah and a history of discrimination and exclusion affecting Latino immigrants in Michigan. These external political and social challenges have affected the very core principles of our efforts to implement community-based approaches. The current manuscript describes key lessons that we have learned in this process. Finally, reflections for research, practice, and social policy are included.
