A
A
Right,-
and
this
is
an
important
piece
of
information.
What-
we
want
to
share
with
you
about
Mental
Health-
is
that
approximately
34%
of
Hispanic
or
Latino
adults
with
mental
illness
receive
anal
treatment
annually,
Compared
to
the
United
States
average
of
45%
So.
This
means
that
this,
our
Hispanic
population
Latina,
is
not
going
to
those
mental
services.
Aid.
B
Exactly,
those
34%
or
one
in
three,
more
or
less
So.
It
is
not
even
half
and
I.
Imagine
that
there
are
some
barriers
that
contribute
to
those
numbers,
the
language
that
there
are
therapists
who
speak
Spanish
or
if
they
come
from
Latin
America,
that
they
speak
some
other
indigenous
languages,
of
Latin
America.
The
cost
must
also
be
a
barrier
that
the
insurance
people
do
not
have
health
insurance.
Maybe
the
insurance
does
not
cover
it.
A
D
Considering
the
number
of
natural
disasters
that
occur
in
the
United
States,
it
is
likely
that
in
the
next
decade
all
regions
have
to
deal
with
some
kind
of
emergency
between
school
sports
and
social
life.
Chances
are
that
when
it
happens,
you
won't
be
with
your
kids.
They
know
what
to
do
ready.
Slash
point:
kids,
have
information
and
educational
tools
to
facilitate
this
conversation
when
When
the
time
comes,
they
will
feel
prepared
and
not
scared.
So
talk
to
your
family
today
and.
B
Welcome
to
another
episode
of
somos
polder,
we
have
our
guest
today
marinella
maneiro,
who
is
coordinator
of
the
emotional
well-being
circle
at
the
friendship
center,
and
this
month
we
are
dedicate
to
talk
a
little
about
Mental.
Health
May
is
National
Mental
Health
Awareness
month,
and
we
want
to
talk
a
little
about.
What
is
mental
health
for
the
immigrant
community,
the
Latino
community,
the
Spanish-speaking
community.
So
welcome
well
Thank.
You.
E
E
The
only
thing
is
that
the
pandemic
revealed
it
to
be
good
due
to
the
intensity
that
we
all
experience
there,,
not,
then
the
friendship
center,
as
always,
responding
to
the
needs
of
the
community,.
We
created
this
circle
of
emotional
well-being
that
basically
is
a
service
for
people
who
otherwise
they
would
not
have
access
to
mental
health
services
And.
E
So
we
offer
them
for
free
with
bilingual
and
cultural
counselors,
which
is
important,
and
we
can
talk
more
about
it,
and
it
is
for
people
at
this
moment
over
18
years
of
age,
who
are
looking
for
some
type
of
social-emotional
support.
So.
We
are
a
group
of
therapists,
coaches,
people
trained
in
health
in
the
area
of
Mental
Health,,
who
offer
this
service,.
A
D
E
Good
question
I
think
the
main
thing
is
to
understand
and
it's
a
bit
what
we
work
on.
We
not
only
offer
the
service,
but
we
are
also
working
to
remove
the
stigma
towards
Mental
Health,
not
because,
as
you
say
so
well
and
I,
think
that
in
all
of
our
Latin
Americans
I
would
dare
to
say
talking
about
Mental.
Health
is
the
same
as
being
crazy.
That
is
not
for
me.
I
have
nothing
dirty
laundry
All.
Those
things
that
we
handle
as
a
family
are
not
washed
at
home..
E
So
I
believe
that
the
work
is
on
two
levels:
first,
recognize
that
Mental
Health
is
part
of
integral
health
and
integral
well-being,
and
secondly,
begin
to
work
so
that
people
understand
Just
as
they
go
to
the
doctor
When.
They
don't
have
a
headache
that
never
goes
away.
Likewise,
managing
emotions
in
a
healthy
way.
You
also
need
support,
So
yes,.
E
C
E
Because
we
remember
that,
in
addition
to
what
has
been
reinforced
in
men
in
our
community,
is
you
are
strong,
you
can
do
everything
and
everything
that
has
to
do
with
emotions
is
supposedly
more
linked
to
being
feminine,
no,
which
is
absolutely
false.
So
well,
we
work
at
these
different
levels
and
it
is
a
job
that
we
also
do
with
young
people,
because
We
know
very
well
how
our
young
people
have
suffered
so
much
and
are
suffering
not
only
as
a
result
of
the
pandemic,
but
also
all
the
stressful
things
that
we
have
in
this
life,.
E
Not
that
we
do
not
have
this
era
that
we
have
to
live
in,.
So
I
think
it
is
a
job
with
the
family
and
Not
also
with
individuals,,
but
from
the
cultural
point
of
view,.
That
is
one
of
the
things
that
we
want
to
emphasize
in
the
services
that
we
provide,
because,
fortunately
we
can
get
people
who
speak
Spanish,,
but
the
bicultural
component,,
the
component,
that
you
know
those
values
and
that
way
of
relating.
In
our
culture,.
E
B
E
B
E
In
a
simple
way,
Mental
Health
is
you
have
good
mental
health
when
You
have
the
possibility
of
living
your
life
without
worries
being
present
in
what
you
are
doing
and
in
the
end
say
that
you
are
enjoying
life.
It
is
true
that
you
do
not
have
that
pebble
in
your
shoe.
That
is
there
all
the
time
and
that
maybe
Everything
is
fine,
but
You
don't
feel
well,.
It's
that
invisible
way
that
sometimes
we
feel
that
something
isn't
right,
but
it
doesn't
happen
to
me
or
I.
E
Don't
know
why
I'm
sad
or
I,
just
don't
know
why
being
away
from
my
family
affects
me
so
much
that
kind
of
thing.
No
So
first,,
recognize
that
if
you
are
not
living
your
day-to-day
life
to
the
full,
right,
with
excessive
worry,
stress,
etc.,,
that
is
a
time
to
seek
help.
And
I
would
also
define
it
as
a
continuum,,
right.,
Mental
disorders
or
disorders
that
specifically
have
to
do
with
the
individual's
behavior.
We
can
also
talk
about
Mental
Health.
When
you
have
excessive
stress
when
there
are
many
communication
or
interrelation
conflicts
in
your
home.
E
E
People
would
be
listening
and
say:
well,
those
are
things
that
are
part
of
life
Yes,
but
you
can
learn
to
manage
and
there
to
cope
with
that
situation.
When
you
are
healthier
and
you
can
put
things
in
perspective
right,
the
other
thing
that
is
important,
that
in
A
psychologist,,
a
therapist,
is
different
from
a
psychiatrist,
and
I
think
that
sometimes
people
confuse
it
with
the
therapy
that
we
offer,
coaching,
accompaniment
does
not
include
medications,
that
we
are
already
talking
about
something.
Else,
no.
E
So
I,
think
that
if
people
are
listening
and
say,
Hey,,
yes,
I've
been
feeling
sad
lately
or
I'm
super
anxious
and
there
aren't
any
or
there
may
be
specific
situations
that
cause
you
that,
well,,
seeking
help
and
asking
how
I
can
live
my
life
more
calmly,,
something
other
than
I.
Think
that
being
an
immigrant
is
important,
recognize
that
we
are
that
from
the
moment
you
decide
to
get
on
a
plane
or
come
walking
as
you
arrive
in
another
country.
At
that
moment,
you
are
leaving
something
that
causes
you
loss.
E
B
B
E
Check-Up
and
note
that
even
the
psychologists
themselves
have
our
own
socio-emotional
accompaniments,
because
the
Life
is
not
easy
right,
I
mean
we
have
these
ups
and
downs.
Sometimes
you
have
questions,
it's
good,
that
you
don't
know
who
to
talk
to
simply
the
fact
of
having
a
space
for
yourself.
That
is
already
important
as
they
say
over
there.
Health
is
not
the
lack
of
disease,
that
is,
you
can
have
goods,.
E
A
E
E
A
E
In
Border,
however,
we
provide
services
to
By
the
way,.
We
have
offices
in
Long,.
We
also
provide
services
to
the
entire
county..
It
is
a
program
aimed
at
people
over
18
years
of
age,,
specifically
the
circle
of
emotional
well-being,
and
they
can
call
720
73902
72
and
make
an
appointment
No,.
You
don't
need
anything.
Else,
make
an
appointment,,
we
make
an
intake,,
we
review
the
situation
and
well,
and
we
assign
a
person.
E
People
in
the
community
with
specific
skills-
and
we
did
that
in
connection
with
another
program
that
we
have,,
which
is
the
challenge
where
the
physical
part
of
the
person
is
seen,
and
we
decided
to
add
this
component
and
they
are
Mental
Health
colleagues
who
They
go
to
the
houses
and
talk
to
people
and
if
there
is
a
problem
or
a
difficulty
or
a
situation
that
requires
another
type
of
professional,.
They
refer
it
to
the
circle
or
sometimes
We
also
refer
these
resources
to
other
resources
in
the
community,.
E
B
E
E
We
refer
to
it,
but
many
times
most
of
the
time
it
has
to
do
with
being
in
a
new
country
or
simply
being
away
from
family
or
not
finding
your
space
here
or
not,
feeling
that
you
belong
right
or
sometimes
not
knowing
how
to
handle
situations
at
home.
Remember
that
there
is
a
gap
And.
You
have
surely
lived
it
between
the
generation
that
We
have
arrived
here
and
the
new
generation
that
has
been
born
has
grown
up
here
in
this
country
as
it
sat
in
the
family.
E
E
I
think
that
would
be
more
or
less
what
what
I
would
say.
There
is
a,
but
I
am
seeing
a
resurgence
or
an
increase.
We
are
going
to
say
it
like
this
of
the
use
of
substances
and
well
again.
We
know
that
this
is
linked
to
stress
management
and
other
types
of
situations
that
we
are
also
observing
very
closely
No.
Yes,
Well,.
A
E
Cases,,
that
happens
a
lot,
you
know.,
because
I
think
that
the
person
who
is
involved
in
the
matter
does
not
realize
as
much
as
what
we
are
around
No
Well,.
The
first
thing
I
am
going
to
tell
you
is
that,
like
everyone
and
the
person
does
not
want
the
help
No,
we
will
not
be
able
to
help.
You
in
That
sense
is
true,
however,.
Those
who
are
listening
to
us
can
call,
I
think
that
we
still
have
a
responsibility
in
How.
We
can
support
that
person
and
perhaps
giving
the
information
to
the
best
Learning.
C
E
That
I
think
sometimes
it
is
difficult
for
us
how
to
tell
them.
This,
And
I
think
that
this
may
be
a
way,
no.
I
mean,.
Perhaps
this
person
who
is
worried
can
learn
other
methods
through
empathy,
putting
oneself
in
the
other's
place,
non-
judgment,.
It's
true
that
we
talk
about
these
things
and
always
what
I
can
tell
you.
It's
just
that
this
has
happened
to
me,
a
mother
calls
me,,
especially
since
my
25-
year-old
son,
has
this
problem.
E
It
is
not
necessary
to
talk
And
I
think
that
this
helps
us,
because
we
know
that
as
Latinos
we
are
very
gregarious
and
we
walk
like
a
ball.
It
does
not
give
much
results
that
you
see
the
example,
if
a
person,
that
is,,
if
I,
for
example,,
see
my
partner
who
He
is
going
to
therapy
and
I,
see
the
positive
changes
Maybe.
That
tells
me
hey.
Suddenly,
it's
like
when
people
go
on
a
diet,
you
don't
say
what
diet
you're
doing.
D
E
E
Two
yes
well,
coaching
is
something
more
like
it
is
very
fashionable,
and
we
have
heard
that
word
too
many
times,,
but
it
is
when
the
person
has,
for
example,
a
situation
to
make
a
decision,
that
is,
I
do
not
know
what
to
do
with
me,.
They
offered
me
these
two
jobs,
for
example,
or
we
have
to
move
or
I,
have
to
make
a
presentation.
Any
such
kind
of
thing
or
I
have
to
have
a
conversation
with
my
boss
and
I.
Don't
know
how
to
do.
E
It
is
a
very
specific
thing
where
what
we
do
is
teach
a
skill,
and
the
person
at
that
moment
can
decide
to
come
to
two
sessions
and
no
longer
one
something
very
specific.
When
we
talk
about
therapy,
we
are
talking
more
about
a
broader
review
of
what
your
behavioral
and
emotional
patterns
are
and
how
suddenly
even
events
from
your
childhood
or
the
way
you
have
grown
have
impacted
that
in
some
way
you
are
like
this
right
now,
No,
without
a
doubt..
E
There
are
many
types
of
therapy
and
what
we
use
the
most
is
brief
therapy,
because
what
we
offer
is
between
four
and
eight
sessions,
where
the
person
can
review
certain
patterns
of
behavior
and
make
decisions
to
get
out
of
there
or
do
the
best.
And
then
we
complement
it.
Maybe
with
talk
about
this
etc.,
no,,
but
I
think
that
would
be
the
fundamental.
B
E
E
E
Ten
years,
yes,
at
least
ten
years
and
I've,
been
working
in
the
community
for
more
than
20
years..
So
I
can
tell
you
that
this
is
our
guarantee
and
our
promise,
you're
going
to
go
some
sure
where
absolutely
everything
is
confidential.
We
take
some
data
just
because
we
have
to
work
with
Grant
if
we
have
to
report,
but
the
person
feels
yes,
You
have
to
feel
safe.
You
have
to
feel
that
everything
is
absolutely
in
space.
E
The
only
thing
that
by
law
and
all
people
that
we
work
with
other
people
in
the
community,,
we
have
the
responsibility
to
report.
If
the
person
is
in
danger
or
someone
in
their
family
is
in
danger,
and
that
means
if
there
are
suicide
attempts,
that
kind
of
thing,
but
it
is
by
law
that
is
Not,
everyone
is
going
to
say
it,,
but
otherwise
everything
is
there
and
I
think
that
this
is
an
important
element,,
especially
for
the
immigrant
community,
where
they
feel
permanently
threatened
by
their
identity
because
of
their
visibility..
E
I
want
to
tell
you
that
the
friendship
center
offers
that
safe
space
and
even
confidential.
For
example,
I
don't.
In,
my
case,
I'm
one
of
the
therapists
in
the
program.
I.
Don't
share.
No.
For
example,.
If
a
couple
goes,
I
don't
see
both
of
them,
that
is,,
it's
separate.
Other
people
see
the
children,
that
is,
even
that
point.
Unless
the
client
gives
us
permission
to
share
no.
D
A
E
E
Offer
four
to
eight
sessions
absolutely
free,.
We
have
financial
support
from
the
County
and
other
big
cities
to
offer
that
So.
If
the
person
needs
more
We
try
to
refer
them.
We
also
know
that
there
is
a
lack
of
bilingual
and
cultural
professionals
in
our
community.
Mental
Health
and
other
organizations
are
doing
the
best
they
can
to
offer
it,
but
there
isn't
In
other
words,.
We
are
few,
then,,
but
our
services
are
free..
The
person
can
make
a
donation
if
they
want,
and
after
those
eight
weeks
maximum,,
we
try
to
refer
them.

It
work
Well
what
we
realized,
seeing
the
resources
that
are
in
the
community
without
a
doubt
that
in
our
young
people
for
speaking
English
and
many
of
them
for
having
insurance,
etc.
and
being
in
schools,
they
have
more
possibilities
of
support.
No,
so
our
resources
are
limited
and
we
are
focusing
more
on
adults
But.
We
have
the
program
them
that
Soon.
We
will
probably
change
its
name
because
in
any
case
it
is
an
inclusive
program
for
young
people
and
there
are
agreements.
E
We
have
some
therapists
in
our
group
and
they
have
agreements
with
the
School
District
already
individually
or
with
other
groups
that
work
with
young
people
where
we
refer
the
young
people
no.
Soon.
We
are
trying
to
offer
it
at
home,
but
for
now,
through
their
program,
we
have
groups
in
schools
in
various
schools,
groups
of
Latino,
youth,
Latinex,
I,
don't
know,
What
is
the
term
that
sometimes
they
prefer,.
You
know
it's
a
debate,
but
well,
in
any
case,.
We
have
that
opportunity.
And,
it's
good,
and
we
support
other
programs
that
are.
E
And
we
take
care
of
that.
We
also
know
how
difficult
it
is.
Navigating
the
support
systems.
That
is
me
so
many
years
here,
I
think
we
are
privileged,
sometimes
in
the
county,
because
we
really
have
quite
a
few
organizations
and
people
concerned
and
offering
services
Sometimes.
The
difficult
thing
is
navigating
those
services,
so
we
can
also
help
to
refer
truth
to
people
and
I
think
that
it
has
even
begun
at
the
State
level.
Well,.
It
has
been
a
while
since
that
concern
at
the
state
level
was
created
at
the
national
level.
E
E
E
Well,
I
believe
that
a
call
to
attend
services
of
this
type
that
are
in
the
community
to
participate.
I
think
it
is
time
to
realize
that
Mental
Health
has
to
do
with
comprehensive
health,
and
that
is
why
we
are
doing
this
work
us
in
friendship,
so
that
people
feel
that
they
are
not
alone,
that
there
is
no
need
to
suffer
truth,
be
in.
D
E
E
C
B
E
What
we
want
is
to
remove
the
greatest
possible
barriers
that
may
exist,
because
we
already
know
that
Mental
Health
is
already
It,
has
stigma
and
all
that,,
and
if
you
get
a
number
that
doesn't
call,,
then
this
other
number
doesn't.
I
mean,.
You
call
720
7390
272,,
leave
a
message
and
we'll
call
you
back
in
24,
hours.
D
Considering
the
number
of
natural
disasters
that
occur
in
the
United
States,
it
is
likely
that
in
the
next
decade
every
region
will
have
to
deal
with
some
kind
of
emergency
between
school
sports
and
social
life.
When
it
happens,
you
will
probably
not
be
with
your
kids
know
what
to
do
ready,
dot,
slash,
gob
kids
has
information
and
educational
tools
to
facilitate
this
conversation.
When
the
time
comes,
they
will
feel
prepared
and
not
scared.
So
talk
to
your
family
today.
A
B
Health,
I,
like
it.,
with
all
the
episodes
that
we
publish,
we
always
include
the
phone
numbers,
the
data.
We
will
have
the
data
of
the
circle
of
emotional
well-being
of
the
Friendship
Center
in
the
program
notes.
We
also
wanted
to
include
some
others.
We
will
read
them
here
and
they
will
also
be
available
in
the
program
notes
podcast,
but
we
wanted
to
share
The
Hotline
for
suicide
prevention.
