“…As group members, they could offer encouragement to each other, provide advice on coping strategies, and become collaborators on research projects. The NG women became “sister scientists.” Creating bonds fits consistently with the communal element in Black cultures (Caldwell-Colbert, Daniel, & Dudley-Grant, 2003) and quickly became a basis for peer, or horizontal, mentoring.…”

Black women remain grossly underrepresented in academic psychology departments at major American universities. With better representation, their intellectual contributions to research, practice, and education in the discipline could significantly expand the margins of the field. Given the positive effect of Black faculty on priming the pipeline of graduate students, increasing the number of Black faculty would likely improve the recruitment and retention of Black graduate students. A pilot mentoring group designed specifically for Black female psychologists with a commitment to academic research careers provided significant beneficial experiences and demonstrated good success in the desired direction.

“…Much has been written about the role of spirituality in the mental health of Caribbean communities (Amuleru-Marshall, Gomez, & Neckles, 2013;Caldwell-Colbert, Henderson-Daniel, & Dudley-Grant, 2003;Gopaul-McNicol, 1997;James & Peltzer, 2012). The American Psychological Association (APA) Guidelines on Multicultural Education, Training, Research, Practice, and Organizational Change for Psychologists (APA, 2003) recommend that competent multicultural practice include the importance of including the client's spiritual life, beliefs, and practices in treatment.…”

“…Currently Americans of African descent comprise the largest ethnic group in the United States, representing about 34.7 million people or 12.3% of the country's 281 million people. Population projections suggest that by the middle of the 21st century, Black Americans will constitute 53 million and Hispanics 97 million of a total U.S. population projected to be 394 million (Caldwell-Colbert, Daniel, & Dudley-Grant, 2003). As our population grows to reflect a larger portion of ethnically diverse residents, it is imperative that mental health professionals acknowledge that differences exist and then begin to deliver services that take into consideration these factors in clinical work.…”

The American Psychological Association's adoption of guidelines for providing psychological services to diverse populations and the enactment by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) of regulations that required the representation of women and ethnic minorities in NIH‐funded research projects called attention to the need to improve mental health services for ethnically diverse populations. This special series illustrates the relevance of cultural and ethnic factors in addressing contemporary mental health needs and the role of these factors in the work of clinicians who serve ethnically diverse clinical populations. The articles comprising the series examine the mental health dimensions of five contemporary clinical practice issues: HIV/AIDS, eating disorders, hate crimes, folk healing, and youth at high risk for drug abuse.
