The African American population has been underserved in terms of culturally-competent mental health services. Although researchers have investigated this issue, there is a lack of information on how social workers have responded to the fact that African Americans have not benefited from culturally-competent services. This study involved using the Afrocentricity model to explore challenges faced by social workers in terms of providing culturally-competent mental health care to African Americans in hospitals. It included examinations of social workers and their perspectives on cultural issues they faced when providing mental health services to African Americans in hospital settings as well as perspectives of benefits and strategies of incorporating cultural competence. For this basic qualitative study, individual semi-structured interviews were conducted with 10 full-time social workers with at least two years of experience working with African Americans in hospital settings within Houston, Texas. Emergent themes were extracted from interview data via content analysis. African American denial of mental health services emerged as a significant challenge faced by this population. Attaining effective communication was perceived as a benefit of culturally-competent practice. Another key theme in this study is family engagement. This study could lead to positive social change by developing different approaches that could advance mental healthcare use among African American populations.
