A study in Pediatrics found that Latinos from 3 to 17 in states with more discriminatory policies have higher odds of having certain physical and mental health conditions.
Researchers analyzed data from the National Survey of Children’s Health from 2016 to 2020. They measured 17,855 Latino children participants from 3 to 17 years old; almost 30% lived below the federal poverty level and a little over half were from an immigrant family.
Latino children living in states with more of these policies and attitudes were found to be 1.13 times more likely to have a chronic physical health condition and 1.24 times more likely to have multiple mental health conditions.
