Project PLUS (Penn State Latino/a/x University Study) was designed to examine the impact of discrimination and microaggressions on Latino/a/x college students’ mental health and substances use behaviors. This project looks at Latino/a/x students’ past-year and daily experiences with discrimination, microaggressions, anxiety, depression, and substance use. Findings from this study will inform future culturally relevant interventions and programs for Latino/a/x college students.
