From the Paper:

"In short, the Hmong people face acculturation, ethnicity, second language acquisition, native language maintenance, self-esteem, and many other factors that influence the growth potential of their church. The church is not only their spiritual place of worship but provides many of them with the cultural and social outlet that they need. The Sacramento Hmong Alliance Church will need to address all of these needs for continued growth."
