Southern Oregon University is offering a new seminar for health and human service professionals —which includes a trip to Guanajuato, Mexico—to address the question of Hispanic mental health care concerns. Officials in Oregon have seen Latino clients misdiagnosed with mental illness simply because their behavior was unfamiliar to Anglos.
Mental health specialist Alejandra Moreno told the Mali Tribune: “The same disorder might look different in a Hispanic person than in an Anglo because of our different mourning traditions or practices of disciplining our children.”
The seminar should close that gap somewhat. Can I go too?
