Discussing mental health-wellness and vulnerable populations

Mental Health Promotion and Illness Prevention in Vulnerable Populations.pdf A focus of social work is in supporting vulnerable populations. I provided a supplemental reading link that really does a great job discussing mental health/wellness and vulnerable populations. Unfortunately part of being a vulnerable population often means they haven't had appropriate access to health/mental health care (financial barriers, transportation barriers, gender affirming needs, etc).

The article points out that vulnerable groups are more likely to be excluded and as a result develop health/mental health problems (Laranjeira, C, Querido, A. 2024). Knowing this and the impact that unaddressed health and mental health can have on people, how can we best support as social workers on all levels (micro, macro, mezzo) to ensure that we are agents of change for future populations too?
