Leveraging the Barriers and Facilitators of Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Care Among Latino Men Who Have Sex with Men in the U.S. to Inform Intervention
It’s Like Disney … You Have to Find Them a Fantasy
This ethnographic study examined multi-level vulnerabilities and social factors contributing to HIV/AIDS and methamphetamine (meth) use among Latinx Sexual Minority Men (Latinx SMM) working in the tourism sector of South Beach. Guided by Padilla's Ecological multi-level conceptual framework of tourism areas, we aimed to contribute to strategies that address the parallel epidemics of HIV/AIDS and meth use in tourism areas. In this high-priority re…
A qualitative community health assessment of HIV prevention awareness in a semi-rural Latinx seasonal farm working community in South Florida
This article explores HIV awareness and prevention in a Latinx seasonal farmworker community of south Miami-Dade County in the USA. The study took place as part of a larger community assessment that aimed to determine community needs and resources related to substance abuse, violence and HIV in the Latinx seasonal farmworker communities of south Miami-Dade County, with a particular focus on fathers' and their male sons' relationships. The study c…
Exit is the answer
This article provides evidence that many Central Americans who have joined the migrant caravans to the north manifest a profound discontent with the political institutions of their home countries. It is based on surveys with migrants in refugee centres, compared with similar data from the AmericasBarometer survey, and complemented with contextual qualitative data on the experience of immigrants passing through Mexico. The article shows that sever…
Covid-19, science, vaccines and family in a multi origin Latinx population in South Florida
During the Spring of 2021 in Miami-Dade County, four virtual focus groups were held with 31 participants from four diverse local Latinx communities as part of the Florida Community Engagement Alliance (FL-CEAL) Against COVID-19 Disparities project. The main objective was to explore attitudes about COVID-19 information and prevention strategies among South Florida's diverse Latinx populations, across a broad geographical area. The study used a sem…
Predictors of Alcohol Use Among Latinx Men in South Florida
Associations of Objective and Perceived Neighborhood Ethnic Density on Hazardous Alcohol Use among Latinx Emerging Adults
Background/Purpose: Emerging adulthood is an important time where substance use often peaks. Neighborhood Latinx ethnic density could be protective against negative health behaviors. Most studies on neighborhood ethnic density have focused on census-level aggregate measures, however perception of the neighborhood ethnic density could differ from objectively measured neighborhood density. This study investigated the effects of neighborhood ethnic …
Coping with stress and anxiety
This study explores how the labor practices and experiences post-deportation contribute or exacerbate health vulnerabilities for deported Dominican male. Using an ethnographic approach and drawing from the participant’s narratives, we seek to describe and compare the labor and health vulnerabilities for Dominican deportees in the two Dominican industries where they are most likely to work – call centers and tourism. We argue that these health vul…
An institutional ethnography of prevention and treatment services for substance use disorders in the Dominican Republic
The Dominican Republic is thought to have significant epidemics of illicit drug use but lacks surveillance and formal analyses of the policy context of drug prevention and treatment services. We conducted an institutional ethnography of 15 drug service organisations in Santo Domingo and Boca Chica, Dominican Republic, to explore barriers and resources for drug abuse prevention and treatment. Here, we present a typology of drug service organisatio…
An ethnographic study of ‘touristic escapism’ and health vulnerability among Dominican male tourism workers
Health research on tourism has expanded over the past two decades, focusing on understanding how the social, economic, and political configuration of tourism zones might contribute to health vulnerabilities among the diverse populations that interact in these areas. While there are few studies of HIV and drug use interactions in the region, research has indicated that these two outcomes are often interwoven in tourism zones, potentially producing…
Adaptation of PhotoVoice methodology to promote policy dialog among street-based drug users in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic
Background Like other epidemics, the current heroin epidemic in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic is a largely invisible and devastating social problem linked to numerous structural and social determinants of health.Methods In this article, we connect a community-based participatory research methodology - "PhotoVoice" - with the theoretical orientation of critical medical anthropology to identify local interpretations of complex social and struct…
Tourism Labor, Embodied Suffering, and the Deportation Regime in the Dominican Republic
In this article, we use syndemic theory to examine socio-structural factors that result in heightened vulnerability to HIV infection and drug addiction among Dominican deportees who survive post-deportation through informal tourism labor. Through an ongoing NIDA-funded ethnographic study of the syndemic of HIV and problematic drug use among men involved in tourism labor in the Dominican Republic, we argue that the legal and political-economic con…
