The program will provide information about health outcomes in America and how those intersect with race and mental health. Physical health and mental health correlate with one another; the presentation aims to present how those correlations are significant for vulnerable populations. Audience members will understand how issues such as race, gender, income among other things impact individuals and ultimately their wellbeing and happiness.
The presentation will cover the importance of being mindful of race and health in order to improve health outcomes, especially with vulnerable population in America. The presentation will inform readers about health disparities and how professionals can address those both at a micro and macro level. As the demographics of the U.S. continue to change it is important for mental health professionals to not just understand those changes, but also being able and willing to adapt in order to address the mental health concerns of a changing demographic.
