My co-presenters and I will be talking all about diversity considerations within PTSD treatment - my specific talk is focused on lack of attention to socio-ecological stressors as a barrier to engagement in EBTs. Hope to see you there! 😀 (2/2)

Devastated for the victims and their families. Call it what it is. This was a white supremacist, anti-Asian hate crime. Fueled by fetishization, racial and sexual violence, and erasure of AAPI experiences. Enough of the gaslighting. End these systems of violence. #StopAAPIHate

The reported shootings of Asian American women on Tuesday in Atlanta is an unspeakable tragedy – for the families of the victims first and foremost, but also for the AAPI community — which has been reeling from high levels of racial discrimination. bit.ly/3eKmNOf

Yes!!!! IMO, the overall lack of attention to macro-level influences on mental health is THE biggest issue in clinical science research and practice

diversity committees being created is cool and all but with no action plan or vision for what they will do... are they causing more harm than good? read our take: abct.org/docs/PastIssue/43n6… @CarolynPonting @giachodzen
