Let Community Drive the Work: A Conversation with Larissa Minner
In this episode of the podcast, Larissa Minner, a researcher at the Texas Center for Disability Studies at the University of Texas School of Social Work and director of the Weaving Inclusion Together in research Hub (WITH), joins us for an exploration of how small-scale changes to everyday practice can catalyze deeper change not only to lives, but to systems.
Our Strategy
We are inspired by Ima Hogg’s vision for a Texas that supports and promotes mental health, resilience, and well-being. Miss Ima was ahead of her time in believing that mental health was just as important as physical health. She believed all people should have access to community-based resources to support mental well-being and live fulfilling lives and championed supports in everyday environments like schools, workplaces, places of worship, and homes.
