Abstract:
Increasingly, mental health is regarded as fundamental to a person's overall health. As communities mobilize to improve mental health outcomes, activities designed to improve well-being can be integrated into these approaches. Although well-being is generally perceived as being associated with mental health, it has not been culturally operationalized for marginalized and oppressed groups. The authors participated in the coproduction of a well-being model for young Black adults and a workbook, filling a gap by translating research into practice. Researchers are encouraged to engage in strategies to jointly create well-being tools to support the mental health of individuals who have been underserved, understudied, and underrepresented.
