This fully on-line course is oriented around the question, How can approaches to mental health and health promotion shape a supportive environment? The goal will be to explore the struggles and tensions of approaches that dominate current mental health promotion. This course takes as a starting point the fact that we live in a world of tensions that are worthy of exploration and critical thought. Specific tensions in mental health promotion we will be examining in this course are the approaches of: Problem Solving and Empowerment, Integration and Inclusion, and Protection and Liberation. We will engage in complex but important questions and ask students to understand, examine and critically review the various and differing approaches to mental health at multiple levels of intervention.
