He is also a child &adult analyst in private practice, as well as a regular contributor for the local FOX TV affiliate, wherehe provides parenting advice and answers viewers’ questions on adolescent development. Dr.Kanner leads participants in the finer points of discussing current events through a psychoanalytic lens when interacting with the media, or writing opinion pieces for mainstream news publications. For this session, discusses how his involvement on TV and radio, his books and participation with a national non-profit organization have helped increase awareness both for his private practice and for psychoanalysis in the San Diego area. Dr. Kanner and the co-chairs of the workshop also coach participants on how to think of newsworthy ‘pitches’ that win over journalists and help attract positive coverage of psychoanalytic topics and programs.

| | | NHF12-120 | | Effective Social Work Strategies for Engaging the African-American Male Speakers: Waldo E. Johnson Jr., PhD, MSW; Moderator: Debra Honig, MSW, LCSW This session focuses on the role and importance of historical and contemporary social statuses that shape medical and public health professional individual and institutional practices with African-American males. We explore how these racialized and social class experiences, coupled with American male cultural notions and experiences with public and private social welfare and social service institutions as both patients and clients, frame the context for examining African-American male marginalized engagement and their subsequent distrust/mistrust of the medical and public health professions. In addition, the presentation focuses on how male help-seeking behavior and culture within the disproportionately impoverished African-American community influence engagement with social welfare and social service institutions.
