Mental health professionals working with the Latine community may find themselves engaging with more than just the individual in the room, often including a clients’ social systems into treatment. However, providers typically operate within a health-care framework that focuses on treating individuals, or their symptoms, in isolation. El Futuro’s 2024 Conference, Nunca Caminamos Solos: Supporting Latine Families Across the Lifespan, centers on exploring the nuanced ways in which families and social contexts can connect to the mental health and well-being of our Latine clients.
Using a developmental approach, national speakers invited to participate in this 2-day virtual conference will guide participants through life’s developmental stages, discussing the interplay of family systems and social context within each, and their role in mental health treatment. Each 90-minute session will offer practical tools and evidence-based approaches to support family systems integration to client care, all with the goal of moving us towards El Futuro’s mission: Nurturing stronger familias to live out their dreams.
