Description

Public demonstrations and media coverage renewed national attention to the treatment of racial minorities in the American justice system. This study explored experiences of community stakeholders in Baltimore City to inform the development of essential cultural competency within the context of counselor training and the practice of psychotherapy. Noting substantial shifts in millennial activism, hope narratives and resilience development findings, useful to counseling and advocacy, are shared.
