Not in any complete sense. Not in a way that connected the phrase to the texture of their own lives — to the years they had spent listening to friends in crisis at two in the morning, or talking a cousin off a ledge, or navigating a parent’s addiction with the particular expertise of someone who had no choice but to become an expert. They were already doing the work. They had been doing it, in many cases, since childhood. What they were missing was the word for it. What they were missing was the recognition that what they already knew, and already did, and already were, had a name — and that the name came with a career.
Fuller calls this the Naming Gap. It is, in its way, a profoundly democratic discovery. It says that the shortage of behavioral health workers in this country is not, at its root, a shortage of people with the right gifts. It is a shortage of institutions willing to see those gifts for what they are.
ELEVEN INTERVIEWS, TEN STATES
The study that would produce this finding began modestly. Fuller designed it as a two-city qualitative inquiry: one-on-one interviews with African American college students about their perceptions of behavioral health as a career. The study grew by word of mouth. By the time it was complete, it had become a national one — eleven participants, ten universities, ten states, five regions of the country. Zero of the participants had any contact with one another. All of them, independently, said essentially the same thing.
