This study uses quantitative surveys, qualitative interviews, ecological network research, and spatial data analysis to elucidate how place-based vulnerabilities and protective factors shape experiences of depression among rural American Indian and Hispanic/Latino Elders in New Mexico. Guided by Intervention Mapping, a participatory approach for planning health interventions, data will contribute to a community-driven plan for a multisystem intervention targeting the place-based causes of disparities in depression, which will form the basis of a subsequent R01 implementation and evaluation study.
