Live Another Day – Black College Students Addiction & Mental Health Support
There are a variety of different factors that contribute to negative mental health within the Black community. Lack of access to care, racial discrimination, and historical trauma are a few. And because there are few medical professionals that have the resources to treat African Americans, many refuse to seek help. These are meant to help individuals find support and care for mental health when they need it.
