A note from the Open Doors Donor
"The Open Doors Fund was inspired by our child who struggled with mental health and addiction while a student at Miami University. Like so many families desperate to help their child, we saw first-hand the gap that exists in mental health awareness and treatment at this critical stage in life. Our goal is to break down barriers to access and give students the opportunity to address their mental health needs at the moment they reach out for help. We hope the Open Doors Fund gives students who are struggling with mental health and addiction the support they need so they can to stay in school while they get better."
