WELCOME 
 
 Welcome to the second issue of Insights on Decreasing Disparities in Depression, an electronic compendium of information and resources on depression detection and treatment in ethnic and racial minority populations.

An extension of the mission of I3D, this quarterly Webzine was developed to assist physicians with adopting professional practices that could reduce and eventually eliminate disparities in the diagnosis and provision of care for patients with depression. Each edition of Insights includes a series of educational cases that physicians can complete for CME credit, as well as links to key references, educational resources, assessment tools, and news related to depression and issues that impact minority populations.

We encourage you to review this and the previous issue and provide feedback and suggestions for future content. You can contact Insights by email at I3D@indiciaed.com.

Thank you for you interest in I3D. We look forward to learning your Insights on Decreasing Disparities in Depression.

Kind regards,
The Praxis Partnership and Editors of Insights
