SOCW 651 - Multicultural Health and Mental Health: Prevention, Evaluation, Treatment
3 Credits
This course explores factors contributing to health and mental health disparities across the lifecycle as experienced by racial and ethnic minority populations, immigrants and refugees, low-income communities, and LGBT persons. Students consider strategies to reduce stigma and stereotyping in health care, to improve cross-cultural and language barriers in the clinical encounter, and to promote social determinants of health. Particular attention will be paid to successful collaborations among health providers and various communities; community health centers as model delivery systems for improving integrated health outcomes; and the National Standards on Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services in Health Care.
