Healing justice in multicultural counseling
Abstract Prioritizing healing for Latinx youth involves more than increased access to mental health resources. Community‐based educators are articulating a vision of healing justice that combines psychological healing and social change. In this paper, we draw on 2 years of collaborative community‐engaged co‐design with youth and young adults of color to propose a framework for healing justice in youth development and education spaces. We discuss the relevance of this healing justice paradigm for approaches to counseling Latinx youth.
