For those who do not know, my father took his life 50 years ago. This month marks the anniversary of his passing. To honor his memory, I am fundraising for the UCLA Depression Grand Challenge, which aims to further understand, prevent, and treat depression, the world's greatest health problem. Scientists still understand much less about what causes depression than other serious diseases, like cancer, and the available treatments are limited and effective for only about half of those who seek help. In 2017, UCLA became the first university in the US to offer online screening for depression and suicide to all of its students; to make treatment available immediately to those who need it; and to conduct a rigorous assessment of this program to document and further its impact. This is where I'm designating all donations; any amount you give will help make a difference in expanding this life-saving program.
