  Using Community-Based Participatory Action (CBPA) principles, a culturally, linguistically, and community relevant bicycling plan was developed and implemented by a local Racial and Ethnic Approaches to Community Health (REACH) coalition in a predominantly Latino, underserved community with a history of significant health disparities. Bicycling resources have centered on more affluent and white areas of town, despite advocate efforts to bring these resources to underserved communities. The plan owed it’s success to the leadership/engagement of community members; shared decision-making; community strengths/assets; collaborative, multi-sector partnerships; co-learning; iterative process; addressing the problem through asset-based and ecological perspectives; transparency/dissemination of information; and long-term commitment.

  More info

  The current study draws upon ecodevelopmental theory to identify protective and risk factors that may influence emotional distress during adolescence. Hierarchical regression analyses were used to examine the relationship among family obligations, school connectedness and emotional distress of 4,198 (51% female) middle and high school students who were primarily (59%) European American. The overall model explained 21.1% of the variance in student emotional distress. A significant interaction effect was found indicating that school connectedness moderated the relationship between family obligations and emotional distress. Specifically, for students with low to moderate levels of family obligations, a stronger sense of school connectedness was associated with lower emotional distress. The buffering effect of school connectedness was weakened as the level of family obligations increased and completely disappeared for students who experienced high levels of family obligations. The creation of a program that takes a holistic approach, in order to curtail the levels of highly emotionally distressed adolescents, must continue to address the ever changing demands that adolescents encounter and prepare youth to deal with functioning within multiple contexts and do so while maintaining emotional well-being.

  This study was designed to explore Cuban American adolescents’ conceptions of good parent–adolescent relationships and the extent to which they reflect cultural values and gender roles. Focus group interviews were conducted with 23 U.S. Cuban American adolescents (mean age = 17.1 years; SD = .90) with at least one immigrant parent. A qualitative analysis of interview transcripts using the tools of grounded theory revealed gendered family roles and relationships across parent–child dyads. Mothers were extensively involved in their children’s daily lives, and mother–adolescent relationships were often close; in contrast, fathers were background figures who stepped in to make important decisions and dispense discipline. Boys and girls reported distinct relationships with each parent and linked family roles and relationships to Cuban culture.

  The primary goal of the bicycling center promotes bicycling as a healthy, culturally competent, family centeredmeans of affordable physical activity and transportation through the promotion of safe bicycling practices and awareness. A sustainable bilingual Bike Program Center was created for youth and their families who reside within the Sunnyside Unified School District (SUSD) Boundaries in addition to Drachman Clubhouse members. The Boys & Girls Club (BGC) certified cycling instructor conducts workshops on safe cycling techniques and helps to organize bicycling events in conjunction with BGC staff, volunteers and community residents. The BGC staff are trained in the proper fitting of bicycle helmets and distribute the bicycle helmets by appointment. In addition, the BGC staff are trained in bicycle repair and work with community members of to help them repair and maintain their own bicycles.
