Additional text
This is a great resource for early professional providers to individuals within this population as the statistics and facts integrated throughout illustrate disparities, considerations, and compassion. Wallace de-stigmatizes the individuals within this population by taking and affirming the view that these are individuals with different need. Thus, different paths of treatment, recovery, and therapy need to be considered, much like what we do with other types of issues.
