Description
Summary:Latino/as living in the United States are faced with a variety of challenges to their mental and spiritual wellness. In this article, I highlight three of these challenges and outline possible interventions for mental health professionals and spiritual caregivers. This paper is based on lectures given for the Coloring Mental Health Collective (CMHC) symposia in Chicago and Los Angeles in September and October, 2018. The theme at both was the same: ‘Telling Our Untold and Unacknowledged Stories: Reflections from Black and Brown Bodies.’
