Abstract

Remote services are a promising option to reduce access to services inequities among underserved populations, such as immigrants families. There is evidence that Latinx immigrant families have used teleservices at lower rates than other families during the pandemic. This research explored the factors that prevented Latinxs immigrant families from engaging in teleservices during the Covid-19 pandemic. Using an inductive thematic approach, we interviewed 21 providers of services and key informants who worked with Latinxs families. Nonparticipation was driven by services unawareness, documentation requirements, a digital divide, and safety concerns. Implications for policy and practice concerning the implementation of remote services for immigrant families are discussed.
