Lessons about Training Black Clergy in Mental Health: What Do We Know?

Listen to this sample of Drs. Payne and Dyer talking on "Lessons about Training Black Clergy in Mental Health: What Do We Know?" originally recorded on October 26, 2012 at NACSW's Convention 2012 in St. Louis, Missouri. Twenty minute audio samples of NACSW podcasts are available to anyone while the full length podcast is available only to members.

Podcast Summary: In light of the fact that clergy are often front-line counselors, this workshop encourages dialogue about the best ways to collaborate with and to train Black clergy on mental health issues. The presenters discuss culturally competent strategies for 1) approaching clergy members of the African American community, and 2) designing effective mental health training trainings.

The full audio was originally published as the July, 2014 Podcast of the Month. Join NACSW today to gain access to this and other great resources.
