On the issue of disparity which has been way back history, the fact about this, is that health care provide on their part are involved in biased and stereotyping which in turn affects the way they relate and treat their patient. On the other hand, it is a problem for minorities to have access to care, even if they are insured on the same level with whites. Factors such as cultural familiarity, language and geography are all barriers that affects minorities, likewise policy, legal and regulations do affect minorities to receive quality care. Therefore, disparities in health among ethnic, socioeconomic, and gender groups in the united states has been a long-standing issue.

People are bullied for many reasons. Some of those reasons are that someone has a mental disability, problems at home, etc. According to www.verywell.com, "Teens who come from abusive homes are more likely to bully than other children because aggression and violence are modeled for them. Likewise, kids with permissive or absent parents also may resort to bullying. It gives them a sense of power and control, which is lacking in their own life."

Throughout the community in which I was raised, many negative connotations and stereotypes surrounded the ideas of social service provisions, particularly such programs as SNAP and TANF. Many people in my community made the assumption that a majority of people relying on government assistance were simply abusing the system in order to get extra money. Judgments regarding the color, gender, and religion of these people also spread, resulting in racism, sexism, and other discriminatory beliefs and practices. The limited perspectives shown to me through news networks and magazines colored my own views of the social welfare system. After thorough observation of the DSS office in Verona, VA, however, I was able to reevaluate the expectations and judgments that I had been exposed to in my

People that are transgender are affected negatively in a majority of aspects, which is seen through the statistics that haunt the community. They face discrimination in employment, education, housing, medical and other services (Vaughn, NP).

Many people believe that people only fall into the grasps of PTSD through their war-time experiences. “Current DSM IV criteria for PTSD do not fully correspond to the trauma of racism as typically experienced by ethnic minorities” (Sanchez 5). Many researchers find that the current conceptions of PTSD are not adequate when viewing non-Caucasian people because the trauma endured is chronic and repetitive. The results of the trauma can lead to situations that are degrading to entire multicultural communities and their politics. Research regarding the effects of emotional abuse and maltreatment has led to the conceptualization of “mental injury” (Sanchez 6) and makes the argument that the psychological consequences of an act are indeed the definition of its emotional abuse (Sanchez 6).

Every type of child abuse is more likely to cause emotional problems to a child or make them to distrust on adults. The effects of child abuse depend on how frequently it occurs, the age, physical condition, gender, and the type of abuse the child has been suffering. When children are abused physically, their behavior and school performance change tremendously because they start experimenting psychological disorders which lead them to learn slowly. Children who have been abused at home, are more likely to spend their day outside by leaving early and going back late because they feel more secure on the street rather than at home. When physically abuse, a child appearance also changes because of black eyes, broken bones, bruises mark and so on.

It is also not just an issue for our culture and country. Bullying is a problem that extends to most, if not all, cultures across the

Normally, the more educated the lady, the more probable she is to wed. Yet, a school taught black lady is not any more liable to have a spouse than a poor Caucasian lady with scarcely a secondary school certificate. With regards to shaping a family, black ladies are not profiting from cutting edge training — nor are they passing those advantages onto the cutting edge. His contentions lie in the sexual orientation unevenness inside of the African American group — where two African American females move on from school for each one African American male. In spite of this irregularity, there is still huge social weight on dark ladies to just marry black men — to "support" the race and manufacture solid black families.

Discrimination against LGBTQ people is important/needs to be addressed because so many people get treated unfairly because some people don’t support people being who they want to be and who they have a right to be.

On Hillary Clinton’s campaign website, she stated, “There are still too many places where lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender Americans are targeted for harassment and violence.

With the rapidly rising of biracial youth, it has been proven that the population is a vulnerable group facing potentially higher risks for mental health and behavioral issues compared to their mono-racial counterparts. Identity development, a central psychosocial task of children, is a complex task for biracial youths since they must integrate two ethnic identities. For biracial youths, mastery of the psychosocial identity developmental task can be overwhelming as they face stressors such as racial stigmas and negative stereotypes, which may lead to identity problems manifesting during adolescence. Biracial teenagers are a growing population who have some unique characteristics, related to their ambiguous ethnicity and their need to define
