| dc.description.abstract |
This research project is exploratory-quantitative in nature, specifically to address acculturation and assimilation issues surrounding the resettlement process of the present wave of Slavic immigrants and refugees from the former Soviet Union to Sacramento, California. Resettlement is a crisis that can pose many problem as well as offer enormous opportunities. The intent of this research project was to gather data on recent Slavic immigrants and their adaptation to the host country. The questionnaire that was administered in the study was designed to determine what kind of needs, particularly health and human services needs, were required or sought by the Slavic people. Several contributing acculturation factors - language barriers, health issues, lack of employment, and cultural norm/beliefs - were used to illustrate the psychological, physical, and cultural difficulties that most affect Eastern Slavs during resettlement. |
