DESCRIPTION:Maria-Elena De Trinidad Young\, PhD\, MPH\, will join us for ou
 r October Grand Rounds event to discuss “Immigration\, Mental Health\, a
 nd Health Care Access among Latinos in Rural Communities.” Dr. Young is 
 an Assistant Professor of Public Health at the University of California\, 
 Merced. \n\nIn her presentation\, Dr. Young will share key findings from t
 he Policies Influencing Rural Latino Health (PIRLH) Study\, a population-b
 ased survey examining how U.S.- and foreign-born Latinos experience and na
 vigate immigration policy in rural communities in California and Arizona. 
 She will explore the relationship between immigration policy and the well-
 being of this population and share lessons learned from conducting researc
 h with hard-to-reach populations. \n\nDr. Young is an immigrant health sch
 olar whose research focuses on understanding the impact of the U.S. immigr
 ation system on the health and well-being of immigrants and their families
