Module Abstract: As part of GSACS fellowship, I collaborated with a professor from Jordan University of Science and Technology to develop lessons, assignments, and a final collaborative research project with her mental health nursing students and my online introduction to urban community health students. The research question that guided this work was What inequalities and stigmas exist in seeking mental health care in Jordan and in New York City? Students had the opportunity to learn about Jordan and many of the social and political issues that influence their access to mental health in comparison to New York City.
