From the Paper:
"In the 1960's and early 1970s, the Dominicans who traveled to the United States were mostly political refugees. Uncertain economic and political conditions prevailing in Haiti and Cuba in the 1980s and 1990s became the cause of waves of migration into the United States from these two nations, and the immigrants often used desperate means to get to their destination. Dominicans are the largest group of immigrants coming from any one Latin American or Caribbean country in three New England States Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire. "
