Sections B and C focus on mental health issues common to Latinx, Asian, and Arab/Middle Eastern immigrants, and then more broadly across immigrant groups. Included here are a focus on depression, anxiety, and somatization, as well as alcohol abuse, insomnia, and issues for LGBTQ individuals. Pre- and post-migration stressors are discussed, as well as the effects of prejudice and bias, the mental health effects of religion and spirituality, and managing the demands of both work and family. Contributors from psychology, education, and social work provide different perspectives and identify opportunities for future research. \u003c/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSummarizes research on mental health issues common to immigrants\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eIdentifies prevalence of mental disorders among ethnic minorities in the United States\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eExamines the impact of group-based discrimination on mental health\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eExplores the impact of acculturation on mental health\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eReviews mental health issues specific to Latinx, Asian, and Middle Eastern immigrants\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eCovers alcohol abuse, sleep, and other disorders across immigrant groups\u003c/li\u003e\u003c/ul\u003e
