Abstract
We explored mental health attitudes among 515 racially diverse college students. Specifically, we examined racial differences in responses to three interventions to improve mental health attitudes. Results revealed few racial differences, such as in attitudes toward seeking help. However, some racial differences emerged in perceptions of campus mental health norms.
