Abstract
The mental health of men has recently become a topic of interest to social scientists and mental health professionals. The chapter presents a strength-based and culturally informed understanding of the interrelated factors associated with the mental health of Latinx men. Concepts such as masculine ideologies, gender socialization, help-seeking behaviors, as well as relevant trends within higher education and the mental health fields. The authors engage readers in an adapted version of the Latinx oral tradition of testimonios. The authors incorporate personal and professional experiences throughout the chapter that are relevant to the topics and to facilitate a deeper connection and appreciation with the experiences of Latinx men and their mental health.
