Crissan Clayton '23 was 10 years old when she immigrated with her father to the United States from Jamaica. The adjustment was difficult for both of them, but over time, Clayton came to realize that her father faced challenges that were unique to him. His response to those challenges supplied the inspiration for her LEEP Fellowship project, which draws attention to the mental health issues facing parents from Caribbean countries and assesses the community resources available to assist them.
