Venezuelan migrants face numerous challenges during the migration and resettlement process, negatively impacting their mental and physical health. Migrants who are caregivers face additional vulnerabilities and health needs, particularly women of reproductive age. However, there is limited research on the mental health of this population, including predictors of mental health conditions. Methods: We combined two datasets, including 1,124 quantitative telephone surveys and 28 qualitative semistructured interviews with female Venezuelan migrant caregivers in Colombia \u2013 the primary destination for Venezuelan migrants globally \u2013 to characterize the prevalence of psychological distress and symptoms of depression and anxiety, key predictors of illness, and experiences with the healthcare system, using a convergent parallel design. Results: We found that a high number of respondents experienced symptoms of moderate-to-severe distress (63%), depression (18%) and anxiety (28%). Across datasets, financial stressors, experiences of discrimination, family separation experiences and history with other health and chronic diseases significantly worsened mental health. Both datasets also showed the protective impacts of social support and mental healthcare from informal sources. Conclusion: This study highlights the critical mental healthcare needs of female Venezuelan migrant caregivers residing in Colombia.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/gmh.2025.10056","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,2]],"date-time":"2025-09-02T06:50:29Z","timestamp":1756795829000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/policypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Mental health of female Venezuelan migrant caregivers in Colombia: A multi-study, mixed-methods analysis"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"12","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7057-8316","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mar\u00eda","family":"Pineros-Leano","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Boston College"},{"name":"MACONDO Research Team; Boston College School of Social Work"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Priya","family":"Agarwal-Harding","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Boston College"},{"name":"Brandeis University Heller School of Social Policy and Management"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Brielle","family":"Ruscitti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Boston College"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Carolina","family":"V\u00e9lez-Grau","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Boston College"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Beatriz","family":"Costas-Rodr\u00edguez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"MACONDO Research Team; Boston College School of Social Work"},{"name":"Albizu University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nancy","family":"P\u00e9rez-Flores","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"MACONDO Research Team; Boston College School of Social Work"},{"name":"Washington University School of Medicine"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Arturo","family":"Harker Roa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Government Alberto Lleras Camargo"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Diana","family":"Bowser","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Boston College"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"S2054425125100563_r32","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0002716216646568"},{"key":"S2054425125100563_r21","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(18)31828-2"},{"key":"S2054425125100563_r49","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12939-023-01951-1"},{"key":"S2054425125100563_r53","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.bbi.2020.05.048"},{"key":"S2054425125100563_r26","unstructured":"IFRC (2020) Least protected, Most affected: Migrants and refugees facing extraordinary risks during the COVID-19 pandemic. https:\/\/www.ifrc.org\/document\/least-protected-most-affected-migrants-and-refugees-facing-extraordinary-risks-during (accessed 14 August 2023)."},{"key":"S2054425125100563_r5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/13634615221111022"},{"key":"S2054425125100563_r46","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archinte.166.10.1092"},{"key":"S2054425125100563_r11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/23288604.2025.2510769"},{"key":"S2054425125100563_r4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/wsp.wsp_5_22"},{"key":"S2054425125100563_r56","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10903-022-01370-4"},{"key":"S2054425125100563_r36","unstructured":"Mora DC-G Jordi Amaral, Jes\u00fas, Mar\u00eda (2021, July 27) Socioeconomic Integration of Venezuelan Migrants and Refugees: The Cases of Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. https:\/\/www.migrationpolicy.org\/research\/socioeconomic-integration-venezuelan-migrants-refugees (accessed 15 August 2023)."},{"key":"S2054425125100563_r20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S2215-0366(20)30242-X"},{"key":"S2054425125100563_r24","unstructured":"Harker Roa, A , C\u00f3rdoba, N , Boada, A , Bowser, D and Shepard, D (2022) World Bank consortium\u00a0: The big questions in forced displacement and health - Colombia country report.
