Books by Faye Z. Belgrave

One out of every seven working age African Americans has an impairment that affects functioning in activities of daily living. Chapters address prevalance, health and rehabilitation utilization patterns, the role of culture, empirical research, and strategies for improving mental health and functional outcomes.

This book explores not only the challenges facing African American girls, but also the strengths and resiliencies used to meet them. Salient issues of self and identity are addressed, and crucial domains such as relationships and expectations are examined.
