The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of a colonia community Latina educational intervention on the religious and existential constructs of spiritual well-being while recognizing acculturative status. Randomly assigned study participants were composed of one control (community, n = 105) and two experimental (alumni, n = 41; intervention, n = 84) groups. Data were gathered through religious and existential well-being and acculturation scales administered through one-on-one interviews. Results indicated that although all three groups were extremely low-acculturated intervention participants, religious and existential well-being scores were significantly higher than community scores and, although not statistically significant, alumni scores were also higher than community. This study supports the effectiveness of a community-centered intervention designed to promote the spiritual well-being dimension of Latinas
