This video aims to highlight the first phase of a mental health intervention for Latino adolescents, designed by an interdisciplinary community-academic partnership.  The intervention stems from prior community-based participatory research on Latino mental health disparities that was thus translated into public health action.  Viewers are introduced to small pieces of each component included in the intervention’s first phase.

Diversity and culture
Implementation of health education strategies, interventions and programs

Discuss the Your Life. Your Story. program and the reason it was created for Latino youth. Describe the interdisciplinary components of the Your Life. Your Story. program.
