Last year we raised substantial money to help fund a study on the often undetected and therefore untreated bruising in women of color. This year we are supporting Mental Health problems, how they specifically present in women, and how we as a group can best assist women find help. These are not problems that are unique to \u201cothers;\u201d we all face ongoing challenges that so often need professional help. As former Chair of the Student Affairs committee of the Board of Trustees, I often met with our female students in an effort to better understand their fear and anxiety, and in turn help the University better find answers. I and others have donated to the CARE Network, please consider making a gift today.\u201d <\/em><\/h4>\n

\n<\/strong><\/p>\n\u201cRacial-ethnic minority groups represent a considerable proportion of the entire population in the United States, yet they experience major mental health disparities. One important disparity is less access to health care. A gift, of any amount, to the CARE Network fund will assist with the goal of decreasing mental health disparities between minority groups. The implementation of the goals of the fund will contribute to a reduction in the odds of an individual with mental illness not being able to afford mental health care, help to lower barriers in accessing treatments, and reduce the delay in seeking help among African Americans, Latinos, and other minority populations.\u201d <\/em><\/h4>\n
