Disenfranchised Grief

Disenfranchised Grief expands the professional helper's understanding of the grief experiences that result from social, cultural, and relational oppression, microaggressions, disempowerment, and overt violence. The authors blend trauma-informed practice and recent research on critical race theory, cultural humility, and intersectionality to both broaden mental health professionals' conceptualization of disenfranchised grief and its impacts and promote equity and inclusion among populations that have been marginalized.
