I was wondering if anyone could direct me to some bilingual (or solely

Spanish) resources about stress/mental health and domestic violence?

I am facilitating a " Promotores de Salud " program and need some brief--

perhaps lower-literacy--handouts, brochures, what have you, to pass

out to the migrant women who are participating. Thanks so much.

I have a

fairly extensive library of materials I have either acquired from federal and

other public sources or brochures I have developed to compliment stress

management workshops that are responsive to the cultural nuances of the community

I work – families in distress and outside of their natural cultural support

system. I use these same materials for training I conduct for personnel working

in mental health and domestic violence support groups targeting Hispanic

immigrants and migrant families. Mental health illnesses and stress factors

that precipitate domestic violence among migrant families are complex and

minimally understood by professionals. Training, reference materials and

intervention strategies cannot be reduced to brief “what have you’s” to pas out

to participants. Sorry for being so blunt but mental health support for

immigrants and migrants particularly those impacted by the added burden of

violence, domestic or otherwise, requires skill, competency and resources of the

highest quality. I appeal to the person issuing the request to review the APA

guidelines relative to ethical and cultural responsive standards for those

engaging in any mental health intervention with culturally diverse populations.

Hello,

Migrant Health Promotion has a Promotora program model and materials called

Salud Para Todos, which train farmworkers educate their peers and offer

support around issues related to mental health, stress, domestic violence,

substance abuse, child abuse, sexual abuse and gangs. Currently, the

program is running in Tennessee, California, Maine, and Missouri. Please

feel free to check out the materials on our website www.migranthealth.org or

to contact me.

Terry Reilly Health Center in Idaho has also produced health education

materials related to mental health and farmworkers.

Our farmworker mental health program has produced some Spanish language videos

and radiostories that we sell at a resonable price to other social service

agencies. Let me know if you're interested in a doing discussions with

farmworker utilizing a media format. I have found that with the low literacy

level it's more impactful to do discussion and watch or listen to something.
