Abstract

This paper presents an anti-stigma and anti-discrimination program for social work students. This educational module is designed to be incorporated into current courses on anti-discriminatory/oppressive social work practice, which are mandatory in Canadian social work education. The program is novel, as it builds on both mental health recovery values and critical social work.

Le programme est original, parce que construit tant sur les valeurs de rétablissement en santé mentale que sur le travail social d'un esprit critique.
