Structural inequities across social institutions such as education, healthcare, and the workforce, for example, have impacted the mental health of Black communities. This event will feature a conversation among experts who will discuss mental health challenges among Black communities across the lifespan, including intersections of spirituality and gender.

Tabbye Chavous, vice provost for equity & inclusion and chief diversity officer, will provide framing remarks. The panel conversation will be moderated by Elizabeth R. Cole, director of the National Center for Institutional Diversity (NCID).

This event is sponsored by the NCID’s Anti-Racism Collaborative.
