Reset with Sasha-Ann Simons - Volunteer-Led Support Groups Bring Mental Health Care To Migrants

Producer: Landon Jones Editor: Brenda RuizIllinois has one of the greatest shortages of mental health care workers in the country, and new arrivals to Chicago face even greater barriers to access. This is because migrants may be disconnected from their families and support systems, lack a job or permanent address or have language or cultural barriers that keep them from seeing a therapist or social worker. Reset learns more about the need for mental health care in the city’s migrant shelters from Kristen Schorsch, WBEZ public health and county government reporter, Laura Pappa, director of behavioral health education at Northwestern Family Medicine, Veronica Armenta-Sanchez, licensed social worker and Aimee Hilado and Rebecca Ford-Paz from the Coalition for Immigrant Mental Health.
