About this document

Stigma and Mental Health in Diverse Communities by Susan Klopfer is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Ethnic and racial communities in the U.S. face a social and economic environment of inequality that includes greater exposure to racism, discrimination, violence and poverty, health officials say. "Mistrust of mental health services is an important reason why people of color are deterred from seeking treatment. Their concerns are reinforced by evidence (both direct and indirect) of clinician bias and stereotyping."
