The Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities and the Steve Fund have announced the nine HACU-member institutions receiving awards to join the fall 2024 cohort of the Equity in Mental Health on Campus (EMHC) initiative. The following institutions were chosen for the cohort:
- Cerritos College
- Gavilan College
- New Mexico Highlands University

The EMHC initiative complements existing institutional efforts to initiate changes in campus climate, policies, programs, and services that affect the mental health and well-being of students of color. The initiative offers colleges and universities a campus-specific needs assessment report with recommendations, engagement with a dedicated coach providing guidance through the process, and participation in a national cohort of institutions committed to supporting and addressing student mental health needs.
