Behavioral health equity is the right to access high quality and affordable health care services and supports for all populations. Advancing health equity involves ensuring that everyone has a fair and just opportunity to be as healthy as possible. This also applies to behavioral health. In conjunction with quality services, this involves addressing social determinants of health, such as employment, housing stability, insurance status, proximity to services, and access to culturally responsive care. All social determinants of health have an impact on behavioral health outcomes. Refer to the Relias Library for more courses related to behavioral health equity.

Diana Beltran is a licensed clinical social worker in the states of Arkansas and Texas. She is originally from Little Rock, Arkansas where her experience has been in working in an array of settings but primarily in nonprofit agencies providing services for low-income Hispanic communities. Upon receiving her MSW in 2018, she worked for Centers for Youth and Families in Little Rock, Arkansas providing therapeutic services for Latino families. As she worked at Centers for Youth and Families, she slowly worked on breaking the barriers of the mental health stigma in the Latino culture by engaging in community outreach at local Catholic churches. Moreover, she engaged in conducting mental health assessments for clients going through immigration processes as well. In January 2021, she began working for The Family Place, providing group and individual counseling services for domestic violence survivors. Throughout her experience working at The Family Place, she has been able to educate survivors by conducting Domestic Violence groups and providing a safe and culturally competent space to process their experience with other individuals who have gone through similar incidents. With her experience and knowledge, she became the Clinical Director at Therapy Works Counseling where she oversaw bilingual clinicians in several offices and provided supervision for master-level interns. Diana is now the owner and founder of Happy Autumn Counseling & Supervision, PLLC where she provides counseling services to individuals struggling with anxiety disorders, OCD, and trauma. She conducts immigration evaluations as well as provides supervision for LMSWs seeking full licensure. She has continued to engage in community outreach by being available for interviews with Telemundo, and Estrella T.V., speaking at conferences, and conducting trainings to educate the community. She is dedicated to educating, supporting, and collaborating with those equally as passionate about providing services for the Hispanic community.
