RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: Pediatric primary care (PPC) is a common treatment site for pediatric mental health, but it is currently unable to meet the needs of all teen patients, particularly those with minoritized identities and/or marginalized experiences. Digital mental health (DMH) low-intensity treatments (LITs) can increase mental health screening and care capacity in PPC, but how this is done successfully without burdening providers, patients, or families is unclear. This paper presents a pre-implementation study aimed at understanding the implementation context (PPCs in Chicago, IL) for a specific DMH LIT. METHOD: Using a mixed-methods design, quantitative data from an online survey of providers assessed current DMH practices in PPC, and qualitative interviews with Pediatricians and Pediatric Psychologists examined implementation determinants for a specific DMH LIT. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, and interviews were analyzed using rapid qualitative assessment. RESULTS: Survey reports (n = 105) and interviews (n = 6) indicated low current use of DMH. Providers in PPC clinics voiced multiple reasons for low usage and low perceived feasibility, including: Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) Inner Setting Domain (PPC clinic workflow, responsibility and ethical considerations, patient privacy and confidentiality), CFIR Outer Setting Domain (hospital and healthcare system factors), CFIR Innovation Domain (DMH design), and a cross-cutting theme of safety. CONCLUSIONS: Provider-reported low feasibility for integrating DMH in PPC is a call to action to partner with interdisciplinary colleagues and identify how such settings can ethically and seamlessly deliver digital evidence-based and accessible screening and care prior to implementation.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: The nursing profession, along with its respective professional organizations, has transcended through the vicissitudes of time. This includes, but is not limited to, the evolution of the profession and integration of African American nurses into nursing organizations and leadership roles. PURPOSE: The three past African American presidents of the American Nurses Association (ANA) were invited to participate in an oral history about their leadership and presidencies. METHODS: The interviews were visual/audio-recorded, digitally taped, and transcribed. DISCUSSION: The oral histories centered on their journeys to becoming the president of the ANA, experiences being the president, leading beyond their presidency, and respective insights about their presidency.

BACKGROUND: Four Black early-career faculty members, one Black doctoral student, and a Black senior faculty member, (herein referred to as scholars), previously engaged in cross-cultural mentoring with a White senior researcher to bolster their scholarship. PURPOSE: In the years following the 2020 racial reckoning, the scholars were motivated to reconvene by the realization that traditional scholarship activities of academia ignore historical educational oppression and fail to account for the contemporary effects of racism and discrimination rooted in American colonialism. METHODS: Collaborative autoethnography, a decolonizing qualitative approach to research, was used to explicate our journeys in academia. The tenets of Freire's critical pedagogy (conscientização, scholarship, praxis) framed our collective experiences. DISCUSSION: We describe resisting academic structures of power, discrimination, and disadvantage through reformation, crafting a vision statement, and utilizing positions of influence. CONCLUSION: To decolonize nursing academia, we implore the scholarly community to pursue liberation and contest structures that center Whiteness and marginalize collectivism and collaboration.
RESUMEN
Young Black men (YBM) disproportionately face the most severe forms and consequences of youth violence (YV) and substance use disorders, but are less likely to access and be retained in services for these high-risk behaviors. Investigating service uptake disparities and the role of barrier-reducing intervention delivery models is essential; so is understanding the service needs and preferences of YBM. This study explores the experiences of violence-involved and substance-disordered YBM and service providers working with them from racially and economically diverse communities, focusing on their service needs and preferences. Additionally, we examine the potential benefits and drawbacks of digital health interventions in addressing crucial structural barriers to service access and promoting equity for Black boys in high-violence environments. Individual interviews were conducted with 16 YBM (selected from a larger pool of 300 participants from a pilot study) and 7 service providers (four females, three males). Data analysis utilized an Interpretive Description (ID) approach guided by the Phenomenological Variant of Ecological Systems Theory (PVEST). Four themes emerged: (1) Revolving Doors and Histories of Violence; (2) Benefits of Violence: "You Do Something to Me, I Do Something to You"; (3) Positive and Negative Perceptions of Violence and Substance Use Prevention Programs; and (4) Need for Equity-Focused and Barrier-Mitigating Digital Health Interventions. Our findings identified avoidance mechanisms utilized by YBM at both individual and community levels and highlighted perceptions of existing community-based programs and digital interventions as crucial tools for mitigating barriers to care. This study also confirms the prevalence of critical service gaps and program uptake issues, even in cities with abundant programs. Thus emphasizing the need for equity-focused interventions co-designed with and for YBM in high-violence and substance use contexts.
