Abstract:
In order to improve outcomes for individuals struggling with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), structural and societal barriers to effective diagnosis and treatment must be addressed. Stigma about mental disorders and a lack of awareness about OCD among the general population, as well as in the mental health community, remain major obstacles to accessing treatment. A variety of awareness-raising campaigns and advocacy initiatives have been created to help overcome those barriers. This chapter reviews the World Health Organization’s guidelines for health advocacy and provides examples of how to apply this road map in advocating for patients with OCD. The focus of this chapter is on the following five elements: Awareness Raising, Information, Education, Training, and Mutual Help.

Abstract:
This chapter provides an overview of social identity threat theory and research and discusses its implications for health. The chapter defines social identity threat as the situationally triggered concern that one is at risk of being stigmatized and provides a conceptual model of its antecedents and consequences. Social identity threat stems from mere awareness of the cultural representations that associate a self-relevant social identity with undesirable characteristics, coupled with situational cues that bring these self-relevant cultural biases to mind, and personal characteristics that moderate one’s susceptibility to such experiences. Social identity threat can lead to involuntary psychological and physiological processes that when experienced repeatedly can have detrimental consequences for health. This chapter describes strategies that people use to cope with social identity threat and discusses their implications for health, in addition to providing a description of psychological interventions that can attenuate the negative effects of social identity threat.

Abstract:
Healthcare disparities represent differences in the quality of healthcare received by different racial/ethnic or social groups that are the result of inequitable economic, political, social, and psychological processes. This chapter examines enacted stigma (negative feelings, thoughts, and actions) among health care providers and felt stigma among their patients (awareness of the biases and discrimination directed toward them because of their stigmatized condition), each of which can produce disparities in healthcare for stigmatized patients. These processes are considered for individuals from four stigmatized groups: racial minority group members, people who have above average weight or are considered obese, individuals living with HIV, and people with certain cancers. Stronger enacted stigma and felt stigma make communication in interactions with healthcare providers less productive, informative, and positive for members of all four groups. Ultimately, poorer quality communication can contribute to poorer outcomes from these interactions, and thus disparities in health status.

Abstract:
This book draws on more than 25 years of experience developing and evaluating anti-stigma programs to reduce negative and unfair treatment experienced by people with a mental or substance use disorder. It builds on a previous edition, Paradigms Lost: Fighting Stigma and the Lessons Learned, that identified new approaches to stigma reduction. This volume examines the newest approaches to stigma reduction with respect to structural stigma, public stigma, and internalized stigma. The goals of anti-stigma work must be to eliminate the social inequities that people with mental and substance use disorders and their families face to promote their full and effective social participation. Awareness raising and mental health literacy are important, but they do little to change the accumulated practices of social groups and social structures that systematically disadvantage those with mental and substance use problems. The book is written with one eye to the past (what we have done well) and one to the future (what we must still do). It goes into depth in targeted areas such as healthcare, workplaces, schools, and the media. We expect that this edition will be a useful sequel to Paradigms Lost, chronicling what we have learned as a global community regarding stigma related to mental illness and substance use and stigma-reduction approaches.

Abstract:
This chapter addresses the challenges of supporting a person with dementia and his/her caregiver. The level and type of support depend on the disease stage and each person’s individual needs. Raising community awareness and reducing stigma can prompt timely help-seeking and access to clinical assessment. After the diagnosis, clinical management should focus on enabling the person to live as full a life as possible and on maintaining the quality of life of the patient and caregiver. Guidance on life planning and legal matters and referral to a local Alzheimer’s association are helpful. As physical care demands increase, caregivers benefit from practical help, respite services, and continued emotional support, while the person with dementia requires increased supervision, affectionate reassurance, and companionship. The transition into residential care can be traumatic for both the person with dementia and the caregiver. After bereavement of their loved one, caregivers often benefit from support.

Abstract:
This case study reviews the evidence for adoption of concurrent palliative care (CPC) during treatment for advanced cancer. Increasing research evidence and expert panel consensus has resulted in national guidelines and professional society endorsement of early integration of palliative care into oncology care. However, there is variable uptake of these guidelines and penetration of CPC into practice. Barriers to implementation include the need to increase awareness of existing evidence and guidelines, stigma, adequacy of a workforce for scale-up, lack of models for integration and delivery, and restrictive reimbursement mechanisms. Changing health care models that emphasize value-based care over fee-for-service can accelerate adoption. Use of technology can also overcome barriers related to scalability and resource use. The case study concludes with the recommendation that implementation science methodologies be used to guide successful integration of CPC in outpatient and home-based settings for patients with advanced cancer and their family caregivers.
