Since October is National Depression Education and Awareness Month, this little 3-page paper on recognizing depression and strategies for discussing it, is cool. While it is specific to the Head Start program, I think anyone who works with a multicultural population will find it helpful, epsecially children's librarians.
Understanding Depression Across Cultures includes a range of materials that describe a comprehensive approach to strengthening the capacity of Early Head Start and Head Start staff in dealing with parental depression. Cultural sensitivity in mental health outreach is super-important.
