Mental Health, Disability, and Combating Marginalization in Education

Bol

Mental health and disability remain connected to issues of marginalization in education, shaping the experiences and outcomes of students. Despite growing awareness, learners with mental health challenges or disabilities often face systemic barriers, including stigma, inadequate support services, and exclusionary practices that limit their participation in academic life. These challenges increase due to factors like race, socioeconomic status, and gender identity, further marginalizing vulnerable populations. Addressing these disparities requires a commitment to inclusive education that acknowledges the diverse needs of students while working to dismantle the structures that perpetuate inequality and exclusion. Mental Health, Disability, and Combating Marginalization in Education explores how mental health and disability intersect with educational inequities, highlighting the systemic barriers that marginalize affected students. It examines strategies and policies that create more inclusive, supportive, and equitable learning environments. This book covers topics such as special education, accessibility services, and mental health, and is a useful resource for sociologists, educators, policymakers, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
