Be 911 Aware™ Brings “YOU GOOD UCLA?”™ to Campus as Black Students Face Rising Pressure, Isolation, and Belonging Challenges

The event uses reflection, storytelling and emergency-awareness training to help Black students and student-athletes navigate pressure and belonging.

  • On Tuesday, the Black Bruin Resource Center hosted 'YOU GOOD UCLA?', an experience designed to help Black students navigate belonging and mental well-being, organized by the Black Student-Athlete Alliance , Afrikan Student Union , CAREGD, and Be 911 Aware.
  • This initiative addresses rising student stress and emotional exhaustion, as research shows Black students at predominantly white institutions report lower levels of belonging and flourishing compared to their peers.
  • Founder Andrea Steward, a former longtime LAPD 911 dispatcher, introduced the K.N.O.W. THE LINE framework helping students distinguish between everyday emergencies and when to call 911 or 988.
  • Participants engaged in student storytelling, music-centered reflection, and the Belonging Snapshot, a tool designed to help students assess their current levels of connection and invisible weight.
  • Ahead of finals season, the initiative aims to foster community and awareness while making invisible pressure visible before crisis happens, supporting students carrying unseen emotional weight.
