Immigration is at the forefront of national, state, and local policy struggles in the United States, and Latinx/@ immigrants have experienced increased deportations, detention, and individual threats. A mobilities perspective allows analysis to extend our view of migration beyond frameworks confined to pre- and postmigration, examining trajectories of social inclusion and exclusion that are influenced by multiple factors in the receiving country. The Immigrant Well-being Project, a community-based participatory research project involving university faculty, students, staff, and representatives from 4 community-based organizations (CBOs), was initiated in New Mexico in 2017 to better understand and promote Latinx/@ immigrant mental health and integration by creating change at multiple levels. We began these efforts by conducting an in-depth study of the mental health needs, stressors, current socioeconomic, legal, and political context, and local solutions as experienced by 24 Latinx/@ immigrants and their mixed status families. Five trajectories of immigrant integration emerged: continuous exclusion, simultaneous exclusion and inclusion, continuous inclusion, movement from exclusion to inclusion, and movement from inclusion to exclusion. These diverse mobilities were shaped by participants' social locations, agency, and experiences with CBOs, which played critical roles in creating, maintaining, and/or transforming immigrants' trajectories. However, CBOs could not completely buffer immigrants from the current hostile climate and related stressors that resulted in experiences of exclusion or movement from inclusion to exclusion. These findings add to understandings of immigrant mental health, complex ongoing mobility, and mechanisms of resilience and resistance within the United States and have important implications for policy and practice.

Latinx/@ 移民包容轨迹:个人机构、结构限制以及社区组织在移民流动中的作用。

移民处于美国国家、州和地方政策斗争的最前沿,拉丁裔/@ 移民经历了越来越多的驱逐、拘留和个人威胁。流动性视角允许分析将我们对移民的看法扩展到仅限于移民前和移民后的框架之外,检查受接收国多种因素影响的社会包容和排斥的轨迹。移民福利项目是一项社区参与式研究项目,涉及大学教职员工、学生、工作人员和来自 4 个社区组织 (CBO) 的代表,于 2017 年在新墨西哥州启动,以更好地了解和促进拉丁裔/@移民通过在多个层面上创造变化来实现心理健康和整合。我们通过对 24 名拉丁裔/@ 移民及其混合身份家庭所经历的心理健康需求、压力源、当前社会经济、法律和政治背景以及当地解决方案进行深入研究,开始了这些努力。移民融入的五个轨迹出现了:持续排斥、同时排斥和包容、持续包容、从排斥到融合的运动以及从融合到排斥的运动。这些不同的流动性受到参与者的社会地位、机构和与 CBO 的经验的影响,这些在创造、维持和/或改变移民轨迹方面发挥了关键作用。然而,CBO 无法完全缓冲移民免受当前敌对气候和相关压力因素的影响,这些压力因素导致排斥或从包容到排斥的经历。这些发现增加了对美国移民心理健康、复杂的持续流动性以及适应力和抵抗机制的理解,并对政策和实践具有重要意义。(PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2020 APA,保留所有权利)。
