On today’s episode of Justice Matters, co-host Maggie Gates is joined by Bevin Croft and Ebony Flint from the Human Services Research Institute (HSRI) for a conversation about the intersections of mental health and human rights in the wake of new guidance on mental health issued in October 2023 by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Office of the High Commissioner on Human Rights (OHCHR).
Together, they discuss the guidance and the Human Services Research Institute, a rights-based approach to the mental health system, peer-to-peer support, the importance of centering those with lived experience, and person-centered care.
