Today’s repeat episode is the very first Earrings Off episode from two years ago. Sadly, this subject remains relevant and heart-wrenching. Just this week, the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill announced on World Mental Health Day, that they were canceling classes. A UNC-Chapel Hill administration representative noted that in the wake of two student suicides in the past month, the university was "taking a moment to acknowledge and reflect on the seriousness of mental health illness and the challenges we face as we wrestle with the stress and pressures of our world today." There continues to be an elevated suicide rate among college-aged students. Today’s discussion will share insight on how the black community too is impacted by suicide. If you or someone you know needs help, please contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline. They can be reached at 800.273.8255.
