 I wanted to update CCPS members on resources on cultural psychiatry issues. Please contact me at francislumd@gmail.com if you have any questions or suggestions.

  • DEIA Resource list by Francis Lu at  https://www.admsep.org/subpages/resources/deiaresources.pdf This is a 34- page list of resources on diversity, equity, inclusion, and anti-racism that I update monthly. It is posted at the website of the Association of Directors of Medical Student Education in Psychiatry. It has the following sections:

I. Professional Organization Websites

II. Websites of Foundations, Universities and Higher Education, and Other Organizations

III. Federal Government Websites

IV. Online Training Resources

V. Journals and Online Peer-Reviewed Resources on DEIA

VI. Examples of Websites of University Departments of Psychiatry on DEIA

VII. Curated book and film lists on cultural psychiatry and related topics at Amazon by Francis Lu, MD

  • The APA website has a new Structural Racism Accountability webpage at https://www.psychiatry.org/psychiatrists/structural-racism-task-force. A Board of Trustees committee is following up on the recommendations of the Presidential Task Force on Structural Racism Throughout Psychiatry (2020 to 2021). There are links to the work of this Task Force at this new webpage.
