What is Community Mental Health? | CIIS

Community Mental Health students learn to address systemic issues within a patient's community and surroundings that affect mental health. Many of our graduates are proactively involved with public policy, community organizing, defending the rights of underserved groups, and public health.

The Community Mental Health degree program provides students with a strong theoretical background with an emphasis on practical application:

-Social justice perspectives
-Cultural Humility
-Practice-Based Evidence
-Psychodynamics, Humanistic Mindfulness, and Family Systems Therapy
-Trauma-informed therapies
-Recovery and resiliency models of treatment
-Community psychology theory and praxis
