Abstract

Familias Latinas Unidas (FLU) is a 12-week psychotherapy program designed for Hispanic high school students and their parents. It especially targets students between the ages of 15 and 18 who would be the first in their family to attend college. FLU addresses cultural stressors that are known to interfere with the pursuit of higher education in this population. FLU has been endorsed by community leaders in Education and will be implemented across Southern California.
