ABSTRACT
We are Latinx immigrants and children of Latinx immigrants. We provided emergency volunteer services at the Mission Food Bank during the pandemic to provide food assistance to low-income families in the Mission District and the city of San Francisco. In March 2021, we were invited to lead a research project that we call “We are Essential”. Here we share our process and a few of our findings on the mental health of San Francisco’s Latinx community during the pandemic, with a focus on our children and youth. A full report of our findings will be published in 2024.
