Addressing Mental Health Challenges in Indigenous Communities

During the recent workshop on the ATIPAN telehealth program, indigenous partner communities shared valuable insights into the mental health challenges they experience. Discussions highlighted key concerns, including limited access to mental health services, cultural perceptions of mental well-being, and the role of traditional healing practices.

These perspectives emphasize the importance of developing inclusive, community-centered approaches that integrate indigenous knowledge with accessible mental health support. As telehealth services continue to expand, fostering collaboration with these communities will be essential in addressing their unique healthcare needs effectively.
