Getting improved mental health outcomes requires better integrating mental health into our other systems, from education to justice. This week’s guest, Dr. Patrice A. Harris, has been a champion in incorporating mental health and the social determinants of health into other elements of society.
“We can’t have good overall health without good mental health. We can’t have good overall health unless we begin to address some of these social drivers of health.” – Dr. Harris
