Social determinants are risk and protective factors that influence mental health outcomes based on people’s living situations. Standardized tools for mental health assessment exhibit considerable inconsistency in appraising social and environmental factors.

 Aligned with social work’s person-in-environment framework, this workshop identifies key social determinants for focused assessment and intervention. Particular emphasis will be placed on social prescribing and advocacy within the clinical practice context.

Objectives:

1. Describe the impact of social determinants on mental health

2. Identify assessment strategies for key social determinants

3. Practice assessing social determinants in a case scenario

4. Apply social prescribing and targeted advocacy to mental health service delivery
