abstract="As a result of poverty, discrimination, and immigration and acculturation stress, adolescent Latinas in the United States often struggle with low self-esteem, depression, suicide attempts, and school dropout. Drawing from two studies conducted by the authors, this article discusses factors that are related to the adaptive functioning and sense of well-being of adolescent Latinas, the roles played by mother-daughter mutuality, and the supports offered by after-school programs. © 2006 Sage Publications.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
