I will accept notices of intent until 5:00 p.m.\, October 29. Between 6:30 and 6:45 on the day of our discussion\, October 29\, you will receive an email from me with an automatic password-protected URL. Please use that URL to join the session (you will of course need to use a computer with a microphone and a video camera in it — if you want to be seen\, that is). When you join\, you will be placed in a waiting room that I will be monitoring to allow attendees into the session. Only those I have emailed will be allowed into the session. This process is intended to maximize the security of our meeting. \nIf you have never participated in an online audio/video meeting before\, when you join you will most likely see a box at the top of your screen asking if you want to open Zoom. After opening\, you will likely be asked to “Join with Computer Audio\,” which of course you will do. When you hover over the screen\, you will see microphone and camera icons at the bottom left that you may use to turn your own sound and video on and off. \nI think that’s all you need to know. I look forward to virtually seeing and hearing you at our discussion! \nThese discussions are free and open to the public\, and I invite you to participate.

The title of her talk is “Resilience\, Resistance\, and Rhetoric:  What Latino/a Immigrants Teach Us About Health and Humanity.” \nThis talk challenges the pervasive deficit lens through which Latino/a immigrants are often viewed\, focusing instead on their remarkable resilience and the protective factors that safeguard their mental and physical health despite chronic stressors\, trauma\, and systemic oppression. It offers insights into how Latino/a cultural values and practices can inform healthier\, more resilient ways of living for all people in the United States. \nAbout the speaker: \n \nGabriela Nagy\, Ph.D.\, is an assistant professor of psychology at 51. She serves as the principal investigator for the EQUITY Research Group. She is a current research fellow with the 51 Center for 21st Century Studies. She is also an associate editor on the Journal of Health Service Psychology editorial board and a board member of NourishMKE Community Food Centers. \nShe has published extensively in her field with recent articles appearing in Psychology Services\, Behaviour Research and Therapy\, JAMA Health Forum\, Journal of Affective Disorders\, and other journals. \nBefore her appointment in 2022 to the 51 Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences\, Nagy served as assistant professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the Duke University School of Medicine and assistant clinical professor in the Duke University School of Nursing. She received her PhD in clinical psychology from 51 in 2017. \nDr. Gabriela Nagy’s research focuses on reducing the mental health care inequities experienced by minoritized communities. In this space\, she has worked most extensively with immigrants and refugees from Latin America. Dr. Nagy’s lab is focused on understanding social and structural factors contributing to health inequities; developing and testing psychosocial interventions to support the health of minority communities; and dissemination and implementation of strategies that hold promise for reducing health inequities. She utilizes community-engaged research methods\, mixed-methods\, and human-centered design approaches. \nPlease contact libadmin@uwm.edu for more information and accommodations.
