Sock'n It To Stigma...What is stigma?
Stigma is a degrading and debasing attitude of society that discredits a person and can cause a person to internalized mental illness. This perceived or internalized stigma is destructive whether or not actual discrimination occurs. Stigma destroys a person’s dignity; marginalizes individuals; violates basic human rights; diminishes the chances of a stigmatized person of achieving full potential; fear of social interaction and isolation; and hampers pursuit of happiness and contentment. When stigma is associated with a behavorial health condition it prevents individuals from seeking evaluation and treatment. Stigma is a major reason why many people suffer in silence.

Importance of Culturally Competent Care
Cultural sensitive therapy follows guidelines for working with diverse groups of people in neighborhoods and communities and understands that background, racial, cultural, religious, gender and sexual identities interact with one’s beliefs, behavior and belief system. Resources and therapy must incorporate cultural sensitivity to accommodate and respect differences in opinions, values, and attitudes of individuals. Culturally diverse neighborhoods experience their own uniqueness, differences and similarities. Help tailored to effectively meet their needs can be effective.
