Course Overview

Mental health and mental illness are often stigmatized topics for the Latinx/Hispanic communities, compounding the existing institutional and systemic barriers that already impede access to mental health services. This iteration of our Mental Health Mini-Talks will help identify factors that impact Latinx mental health and will address ways health professionals can support this population. This session will feature Denise Rodriguez, PhD, DBSM; Karina Duenas; Anna Carolina Ortiz, MPH; Francisco Moreno, MD.
