Query: Hi, I’m Terry Turner, a writer working on a feature article for Annuity.org — an informational website focused on annuities and personal finance issues with more than 4 million page views per year. I’m working on a project examining financial stress specifically among women, minorities and other people in other underserved or underrepresented communities. My questions:

  1. Are there financial stress factors people in these demographics may face distinct from those most often talked about?
  2. How do factors based on income, employment, and systemic inequalities affect financial stress among these populations?
  3. What unique financial stress challenges do these groups face compared to the mainstream view of financial stress?
  4. Is the issue of financial stress overlooked in America, and if so, why do you think?
  5. Where can people turn for help — both financial and mental health related?
  6. Are there resources that are aimed directly at specific populations or communities?

Requirements: Mental health professionals, certified financial professionals, or financial academics preferred. You can answer as many as you would like, but respond in quotable sentences. Please include your full name, title and any professional certification. Please provide a link to a professional headshot that can be used in the project if needed and a link to a website to confirm your credentials.

  • Deadline: 10:00 PM EST – 16 June

Query: People sometimes fall short of demonstrating good character. Still, ethics and professionalism are essential to get ahead in life, or are they? Moral Code explores society’s ever-changing moral landscape to determine what still matters, what has changed, and how to demonstrate good ethics in our daily lives. This week we want to discuss the obligation of gift giving, specifically when another person gave us a gift and we did not return the favor. Whether its the same holiday or the other person routinely gifts another person for birthdays, events, all holidays, etc, we want to know–must always give them something in return. If we don’t whether it be financial, or skip our mind, we may feel guilty when a person gifts us an item and we come empty-handed. Tell us your thoughts.

Requirements: We want to hear from mental health professionals, therapists, etc. Please include social media handles.
