Abstract
The increased prevalence of behavioral health problems in the US is intensified by the critical shortage of providers in the field. The historical failure of behavioral health specialties to attract BIPOC students and workers limits leadership, access to quality care, and the generalizability of research findings. Most workforce development programs serve only those with earned graduate degrees. This report describes a service-learning program that is successfully attracting new graduates with bachelor's degrees and culturally diverse professionals into the behavioral health workforce.
期刊介绍：
Community Mental Health Journal focuses on the needs of people experiencing serious forms of psychological distress, as well as the structures established to address those needs. Areas of particular interest include critical examination of current paradigms of diagnosis and treatment, socio-structural determinants of mental health, social hierarchies within the public mental health systems, and the intersection of public mental health programs and social/racial justice and health equity. While this is the journal of the American Association for Community Psychiatry, we welcome manuscripts reflecting research from a range of disciplines on recovery-oriented services, public health policy, clinical delivery systems, advocacy, and emerging and innovative practices.
