Research Highlights
One of CIMH’s goals is to bring research findings to practitioners and community members. For 2023, we are starting a new initiative—Research Highlights—to share recently published work related to immigrant and refugee communities. Each month we will be sharing a summary of one research article that is relevant to CIMH members. The Research Highlights will cover a range of topics and immigrant groups, as well as prioritize work by scholars who identify as immigrants.
