While environmental justice scholarship has focused on prioritizing infrastructure-based solutions, it has given less attention to cultural responses rooted in spiritual, communal, and nature-based practices. As a result, Black ecological knowledge, histories of environmental advocacy, and ancestral healing traditions remain underrepresented or decontextualized within dominant frameworks. The paper argues that Black communities have long engaged with the natural world as a site of healing, resistance, and collective care. By recontextualizing Black ecological traditions, spiritual relationships to the land, and community-based practices - while centering Black ecological history, the paper reframes nature-based healing as both a public health strategy and a restorative justice intervention. Grounded in an ecowomanist lens, ecotherapy is a restorative response to environmental harm that addresses the psychological, cultural, and spiritual dimensions of well-being. The paper calls on practitioners, researchers, and policymakers to broaden the scope of climate-responsive approaches to include ecotherapy and culturally rooted practices as pathways toward ecological repair, collective healing, and justice.","PeriodicalId":46944,"journal":{"name":"Social Work in Public Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-13"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149185114","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through the experiences of a collectivist household, the poem explores how food functions as affection, hospitality, obligation, and cultural belonging, while commercial marketing, pricing, school environments, and unequal access to healthy choices shape diabetes risk. The accompanying discussion positions poetry as a tool for public health advocacy, community organizing, and policy communication. It proposes the use of performance, story circles, community forums, professional training, and campaign materials to connect family experiences with broader commercial and social determinants of health. The piece advocates for restrictions on unhealthy food marketing to children, clearer food labeling, healthier school environments, access to safe drinking water, affordable nutritious food, and community-based diabetes prevention. Rather than blaming collectivist culture, it presents family cohesion as a potential source of collective action, resilience, and culturally responsive health promotion.","PeriodicalId":46944,"journal":{"name":"Social Work in Public Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148898062","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Of these, 20-40% are lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender. However, limited attention has been given to the preventive and primary healthcare experiences of homeless gay and bisexual young men, despite documentation of their elevated health risks. This is a qualitative study based on semi-structured interviews of 30 homeless gay and bisexual young adult men in New York City to examine their experience with the healthcare system. Three themes emerged from content analysis of the interview data. First, all participants exhibited misunderstandings about what constitutes routine preventive healthcare. Second, only those receiving HIV-related care reported experiencing continuous, high-quality care. Third, bisexual men expressed concerns about clinician's lack of understanding about the divergence between identity and actual sexual behavior. This study adds to the growing literature as it unearthed nuances in the healthcare system as experienced by homeless gay and bisexual young men in New York City. More research is warranted to explore healthcare providers' assessment of bisexuality among young adult men experiencing houselessness. A comparative assessment is needed to understand the perception and expectations of gay and bisexual young men experiencing homelessness regarding primary healthcare to that of medical recommendations.","PeriodicalId":46944,"journal":{"name":"Social Work in Public Health","volume":" ","pages":"118-129"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145239965","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Years of neglect to a crumbling infrastructure triggered the Jackson water crisis, leaving residents without clean and reliable access to water. Predating any one administration, Black and low-income residents had long raised concerns about excessive water bills, broken water mains, poor water quality, and deterioration of the city's water system. Despite years of advocacy and concerned citizens, agenda items continued from one administration to the next without any resolution to this public health issue. For public health social workers, the Jackson water crisis represented a call to action to integrate environmental justice into practice and education, and to advocate for systemic solutions that impacted the city's most affected. The Jackson water crisis revealed how infrastructure failures threatened one's basic human right to clean water. Additionally, this crisis spotlighted an urgent need for equity-driven policies, as well as funding at both the state and federal level. Thus, creating opportunities for the social work profession to take an active role in advancing environmental justice by addressing the systemic inequities revealed by crises like Jackson's water failure. By integrating environmental justice into practice, social workers can help drive structural reforms that protect health, dignity, and community resilience.","PeriodicalId":46944,"journal":{"name":"Social Work in Public Health","volume":" ","pages":"221-229"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145034592","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
