This episode will cover the impact of Healing Circles especially on Latinx communities. Disclaimer: We understand that there are Latino/a/x/e but in this podcast, we will be referring to the collective as Latinx. The Latinx community experiences many barriers to accessing mental health services. According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), only 36% of Latinx receive mental health services compared to Non-Latinx whites. This is due to a variety of barriers including, language access issues, racism and discrimination, and mental health stigma. This can be a challenging experience for Latinx community members, so healing circles have been shown to have more success in addressing mental health issues. Healing circles are a strength-based approach to building resilience and healing trauma. For some, a healing circle can be a great way to find support through hardships such as addiction, grief or even trauma. The idea of the circle is to allow members to be vulnerable, talk about their lived experiences and begin the path of healing. So, join Stephanie Sandoval, Health Educator and Selina Hernandez, Community Relations Specialist at the UCR School of Medicine Center for Healthy Communities, as they explore the importance of healing circles. We will hear from Fatima Baldelomar, Founding Executive Director of Love and Nature Initiative.
