Her life's work: Our conversation with Sarah Mustillo

Fewer than half of adults and children with a mental health disorder recieve treatment. Dean Sarah Mustillo is working to change that. Watch or listen to our extended conversation with Mustillo, and hear why she says Notre Dame will succeed in making a difference.

“Our approach at this clinic will involve looking at the whole human—considering a person in context, looking at their whole family and their whole life—and how we can treat not just that condition, but really their life in context and in the context of their community.” -Sarah Mustillo, the I.A. O’Shaughnessy Dean of the College of Arts and Letters.
