EPISODE NOTES
Our conversations on the mental health related challenges facing young people in America continues with a discussion on the importance of belonging for the mental wellness of adolescents and youth.
Public discourse in America today laments increasing polarization, a society wide retrenchment into siloed communities defined by characteristics which can include race and ethnic identity, religion, political affiliation, perspectives on gender roles and sexual orientation, and a whole host of other factors.
Mental Health Trailblazers, Psychiatric Nurses Speak Up host Indrias Kassaye is joined by SAMHSA Minority Fellowship Program at the American Nurses Association Alumna Tricia Howard in episode 10 for an exploration of the mental health impact of these dynamics for adolescents and young people. Together they dissect what it means to belong, and critically, what happens when young people feel they do not belong, especially in the places and spaces that are essential for their growth and development as human beings, like school?
Psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner Tricia Howard who has worked with the public school system for many years, brings valuable insights to this conversation, including recommendations for what behavioral health professionals, especially nurses, can do to ensure young people confronting issues related to their sense of belonging are able to overcome them, succeed and thrive.
