Kenneth Po-Lun Fung; Josephine Pui-Hing Wong; and Alan Tai-Wai Li
Mental health is a vital aspect of wellbeing in each and everyone of us. The term itself, however, is sometimes associated with negative stigmatizing connotations. There is work to be done to eliminate mental stigma and all other kinds of stigma in society and within ourselves. Our manual will help you as trained facilitators to deliver group sessions to promote mental wellbeing, increase resilience, decrease mental health stigma, and increase activism and advocacy to promote mental health using our intervention model, Acceptance and Commitment to Empowerment (ACE), rooted in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Group Empowerment Psychoeducation (GEP).
Acceptance and Commitment Training (ACT) for Mental Health Promotion
Reducing Mental Illness Stigma and Promoting Valued-Living
Kenneth Po-Lun Fung and Josephine Pui-Hing Wong
Acceptance and Commitment Training (ACT) for Mental Health Promotion was developed as a comprehensive handbook for the Strength-In-Unity capacity-building action research project. The project engaged men in the Asian diasporic communities in Calgary, Vancouver, and Toronto with the goal of reducing mental illness stigma and promoting mental wellbeing and collective resilience. The handbook provides step-by-step instructions for implementing Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) as a group intervention. It has been found to be effective in supporting project team members and group facilitators to deliver ACT experiential activities seamlessly. In this handbook, the authors place a strong emphasis on adhering to core ACT principles and philosophies, as well as to the project implementation processes, which are essential for delivering and evaluating the effectiveness of ACT in reducing mental illness stigma and promoting mental wellbeing.
