Creating an Equal Chance at Mental Health: Founded in 2014, the Steve Fund is the nation's first organization focused exclusively on improving the support for the mental and emotional well-being of young people of color. It prioritizes students transitioning into college, those enrolled in college, and young people transitioning into the workforce and uses programs, research, thought leadership convenings, and communications to stimulate dialogue and best practices that reduce stigma, build knowledge, and support assistance to this targeted group. Enhancing the effectiveness of our nation's higher education institutions and nonprofits around personal support and emotional/mental health of students from families and communities of color is critical to our mission.
