Broadening Access to Mental Health Care for Ethnically Diverse Students

Broadening Access to Mental Health Care for Ethnically Diverse Students

Rates of depression, anxiety and suicidal ideation among college students are at an all-time high. And while students of all backgrounds face similar levels of mental health challenges, ethnically diverse students are far less likely to seek treatment. That gap is due to factors including lack of access to a diverse selection of counselors; cultural stigmas surrounding mental health; and the cost of care. The need for more robust mental healthcare continues once students transition into the workforce.


On this episode, we hear from Diana Chao, a graduate student and the executive director and founder of Letters 2 Strangers, a global, youth-run mental health nonprofit that emerged from Diana’s own battle with mental illness. Then, host Carla Harris sits with Evan Rose, co-founder of The Steve Fund, the leading organization in the U.S. focused on supporting the mental health and emotional wellbeing of young people of color, and a non-profit member of the Morgan Stanley Alliance for Mental Health. They discuss the work that The Steve Fund is doing to offer a roadmap for higher education institutions and companies to create accessible mental healthcare solutions for their students and colleagues, respectively.
