Breastfeeding can reduce breast cancer risk, both in the practice of breastfeeding and the duration of time a person breastfeeds, with longer durations associated with increased benefits. However, several racial/ethnic communities with higher rates of breast cancer are also those with lower rates of breastfeeding.

Women of color and immigrant women are more likely than U.S.-born white women to report mistreatment and poor quality of care during their reproductive health care. Surprisingly, little research exists on how language access may impact immigrant women's experiences of maternity care, particularly by race and ethnicity.

Immigration enforcement policies are associated with immigrants' barriers to health care. Current evidence suggests that enforcement creates a "chilling effect" in which immigrants avoid care due to fear of encountering enforcement.

In this study, authors quantify undocumented immigrants' lifetime exposure to various immigration enforcement tactics and their association with delays in COVID-19 testing and healthcare behaviors. This cross-sectional study included a nonrandom sample of 326 Asian and Latinx undocumented immigrants in California from September 2020 to February 2021.
