Mental Health Mini-Talks: Hispanic/Latinx Mental Health

In Arizona, almost one third of the population is Latinx or Hispanic. 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, MSW; Anna Carolina Ortiz, MPH; Francisco Moreno, MD.
