Critical Collaboration (eBook, ePUB)

Pastors and Mental Health Professionals as Partners in Care to Urban African American Communities

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Critical Collaboration is about the critical need for partnership between pastors and mental health professionals in service to urban African American communities. While the historically African American church has done commendable work in its virtually exclusive role as emotional caregiver, there is a disproportionate susceptibility to certain mental illnesses in the African American community, which calls for a collaborative effort to advance the cause of holistic health. Critical Collaboration provides historical, socioeconomic, theological, and psychological contexts that serve to increase the awareness and cultural competence needed to bridge the gap between the professional communities of faith and mental health.
