Describe a hypothetical immigrant family from one of the groups below. Rely on the readings from your Re-Visioning Family Therapy and Ethnicity and Family Therapy texts, and pertinent journal articles from the unit to support your post:
.Asian Americans or Pacific Islanders.
.Arab or Muslim Americans.
.Latin/x.
.Somali or African.
.East Asian Indians.
Address the following questions within the context of the family you described:
.How might historical and current views on immigration result in challenges for this family?
.How might acculturation affect the family as a whole and individual members similarly and differently?
How might this create barriers to treatment?
.Discuss the family in terms of strength and resilience.
How can family strengths and resilience be harnessed throughout the treatment process?
.For what types of community resources would you advocate to promote wellness for immigrant populations?
