语言和文化障碍缓解了难民和移民人口之间的障碍,以及他们适应美国生活所需的心理健康服务。为了弥合心理健康专业人员和服务对象之间的差距,并对社区进行有关服务的教育,各机构正在招聘双语和双文化的辅助专业人员,以履行外联职能和提供口译服务。本文介绍了造成这种情况的最新情况,讨论了辅助专业人员在心理健康中的作用,并解决了围绕双语、双文化辅助专业人员的雇用、培训和监督而产生的问题和问题。
Language and cultural barriers mitigate between refugee and immigrant populations and the mental health services they need to adjust to life in the United States. To bridge the gap between mental health professional and client, and to educate communities regarding services, agencies are recruiting paraprofessionals who are bilingual and bicultural to perform outreach functions and provide interpretation services. This article presents the recent circumstances that have created this situation, discusses the roles of paraprofessionals in mental health, and addresses the issues and problems that can arise around the hiring, training, and supervision of bilingual, bicultural paraprofessionals.
