Understanding Undocumented Mental Health and True Allyship

Undocumented students having been dealing with many challenges during COVID. The Latinx population of Sonoma County had a decrease in life expectancy by 2.1 years. Individuals who have died while consuming drugs has increased and the number of other individuals who have died due to suicide also has increased. Undocumented students have a difficult time reaching out for mental health support at Santa Rosa Junior College. Unless changes are made to improve equity and create a welcoming space for these students, many will drop out or worse. #covid #covid19 #SRJC #undocustudents #mentalhealth
