1103 - Social Justice Approaches to Mental Health: Addressing Marginalization, Exclusion, and Racism

Sat, August 10, 8:30 to 10:10am, New York Hilton, Floor: Concourse, Concourse B

Session Submission Type: Paper Session 100min

Description

The Sociology of Mental Health has a long and rich history of social justice. For this session, we seek papers that address sources of social marginalization and exclusion, such as stigma and racism, and focus attention on the relationships among exclusion and mental health and well-being. In addition, this session will include papers that focus on the social consequences/exclusion of mental illness and seeking mental health care. Papers addressing strategies to address these consequences at the individual, inter-personal, clinical, and policy levels are also welcome.
