THE LATINA/O WELL-BEING RESEARCH INITIATIVE

The Latina/o Well-Being Research Initiative is a collaborative of community members and multidisciplinary scholars at Marquette University who are dedicated to promoting the well-being of Latina/o youth and adults in Milwaukee. Together we work to develop innovative, culturally-relevant research and programming that addresses the psychological, physical, and socioenvironmental factors that influence the lives of Latina/os. 

Our initiative is funded by Marquette University's Explorer Challenge (formerly known as the Strategic Innovation Fund).
