Citizenship as mental health: Towards a redefinition of mental health objectives. Guide for the implementation of awareness interventions for mental health professionals based on the Citizenship model.

Abstract

Learning Objectives Planning an awareness-raising intervention requires beginning with a clear definition of the learning outcomes expected from participants. At the end of this activity, we expect participants to be able to: • Identify elements of professional practice that correspond to the different dimensions of citizenship. • Conceptualize the citizenship model as an alternative way of understanding mental health practice. • Analyze the implications of shifting from a model based on symptom reduction to one based on supporting individuals toward full citizenship. • Apply interventions grounded in the citizenship model to everyday practice.
