UM Population Studies Center@um-psc.bsky.social · 4mo ago@kgamarel.bsky.social: Akilah Patterson is an accomplished participatory scholar. She wanted to ensure that her research met the needs of the communities that she cares about and serves. And to our knowledge, this is the first comprehensive examination of college students mental health at HBCUs.
