This webinar revisits the context of reception of Latine immigrants, refugees, and asylum seekers, presented in Part 1, with a focus on the mental health assessment process and the clinical relationship. Dynamics specific to bilingualism, transnationalism, culture, race, racism and racialization are examined and explored. Implications for the supervision and training of Latinx social workers, as well as for the social worker-client relationship—including the engagement process of Latinx and BIPOC clients in medical and behavioral health services— are presented and discussed.

Social work practice with people dealing with substance use disorders (SUD) and addictions is both challenging and rewarding. Supporting social work students in practicum with this population is essential for training the next generation of social workers in meeting the need for high quality service and care. This presentation is designed for supervisors of social work students, to help interns build confidence and skills with SUD/addiction clients. The importance of addressing supervision issues with this specific population will be outlined. Then we will explore how to encourage the use of non-judgmental and non-stigmatizing language in working with SUD/addiction populations. Supervisors will be shown how to access and utilize current information on SUD/addictions. Finally, we will look at how to help students be more aware of issues related to boundaries and countertransference, including the use of mindfulness.

Chronic pain is one of the most common and challenging presenting concerns in medical offices, particularly in primary care. Helping patients manage chronic pain is complicated by a limited understanding of the underlying causes of various pain conditions, limited available treatment options for pain and the challenges of addressing the adverse effects of opiate pain medications. Living with chronic pain negatively impacts a patient’s physical, social and emotional functioning and therefore a multidisciplinary approach to the treatment of chronic pain is the new standard of care for these complex patients.
