Description

On today's episode, our season finale, we will discuss mental health in honor of mental health awareness month. We are joined by Dr. Eduardo Rueda Vásquez (Edward's dad!) and social worker Lillian Schene. We'll discuss our own journeys, what our panelists have experienced as latino providers working with latino patients, and patterns in a collectivist culture. You won't want to miss this!
