Abstract
ABSTRACT Using an interpretive phenomenological analysis, we explored refugees’ experiences with discrimination and social determinants of health in a southern city of Texas, within the context of recent public policy changes and anti-refugee rhetoric. To create a separate, yet coextending, exploration of this phenomena, we interviewed both refugees and staff members who work with this population. Five main themes emerged: (a) economic instability, (b) unequal educational starting points, (c) refugee enclaves, (d) negative community and political messages towards refugees, and (e) connection to health and healthcare systems. Implications for counselors are also discussed.
