It is important for counselors to understand the differences and similarities among Latino families. What are family members’ stories and experiences of migration if they are recent immigrants? What are their language preferences? With immigrant families, the younger generations often prefer to speak in English while the parents tend to be more comfortable in Spanish. One key assessment issue involves exploring the family and extended family resources available to the family members. Where are potential sources of support? Is the family relatively isolated? Depending on the geographic area, there may or may not be Latino communities nearby that can be sources of support and offer a sense of community.
