Examine the existing literature to understand how acculturation, minority stressors, SES, and social support influence the mental health of Latina mothers beyond the first year postpartum. The review aims to address: how acculturation, family and social supports, and socioeconomic standings influence the mental health of Latina mothers over time and how the experiences typical of the acculturation process, impact the mental health of Latina mothers over time.
