Description
This edited volumes takes an interdisciplinary approach to studying the promotion and destigmatization of mental health communication among underserved and marginalized populations, particularly in the post-COVID-19 pandemic era. Contributors explore these challenges across a variety of underserved populations, including U.S. veterans, refugees, LGBTQ+ communities, and racial minorities, among others, to provide a comprehensive examination of the pitfalls and promises of bridging crucial gaps through mental health communication. Scholars of health communication, social work, sociology, media studies, critical race studies, and gender studies may find this book to be of particular interest.
