 The Hispanic Outreach Program helps Spanish-speaking clients locate mental health providers, advocates for increased mental health services for Nashville’s foreign-born residents, and builds coalitions with other agencies to create new resources. HOP provides support groups for Hispanic women and middle school students, offers cultural training for other agencies, and holds monthly meetings to provide resources and information for agencies that work with the Hispanic community.
In 2002 the MHAMT’s Hispanic Outreach Program (HOP) began conducting “Las Mujeres de Hoy” educational/support groups, using a curriculum developed by our bilingual Hispanic Outreach Specialist, Luisa Hough, to address the mental health needs of Hispanic women in Nashville.
