I feel like a great way to create more access to mental health care in the Latinx community is to create a website with bilingual health professionals available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. I would have liked to create a website that they can access anonymously, if they are afraid to reveal their status. This website would be able to give virtual or in person appointments so we can further assist our patient to their needs. If they need a prescription it would be covered by us after we evaluate them. This would be a safe space for them to come and speak freely with no judgement and receive help.
People can also do information sessions to educate parents on where they can get free resources and any type of help.
Another way to gain more access is by getting children into programs, there are many programs that they can be enrolled in that would help them develop skills to deal with their problems. For example a program is the child mind institute. They help children and families to deal with mental illness.
