Isabelle Fleury to deliver the keynote of the 2022 UC Santa Barbara Mental Health Conference

Isabelle Fluery, M.Ed., doctoral student in the Department of Counseling, Clinical, and School Psychology, will deliver the keynote talk at the seventh annual UC Santa Barbara Mental health Conference on Saturday, May 7 at 10:15 am. Her speech will address the preliminary results from her dissertation study, which investigates how Black undergraduate students experience racial stress and if campus health providers should screen Black students for racial stress. Using a public health framework that recognizes racism as a social determinant of health, Fluery will highlight the advantageous position that colleges and universities are in to integrate academic, career, health, and crisis support services for their students.

UCSB’s 7th Annual Mental Health Conference, in addition to this keynote, will feature student panelists sharing their experience with mental health, various workshops about mental health topics relating to self-care and relationships, and free breakfast and lunch during the event.
