St. Thomas University partners with JED Campus
JED Campus is a nationwide initiative of The Jed Foundation designed to help colleges and universities enhance emotional well-being and mental health promotion efforts, reduce substance abuse, and prevent suicide among students.
JED campus is an 18 month program which includes assessment from a JED Campus Advisor and forming an interdisciplinary task force that includes Student Health, Student Affairs, Athletics, Academics, Academic Enhancement, Student Success, Law Administrators, Residential Life, Public Safety, and students to address mental health and well-being efforts.
JED Campus programs are grounded in our Comprehensive Approach to Mental Health Promotion and Suicide Prevention for Colleges and Universities and for High Schools. These evidence-based models can be used to assess efforts currently being made in schools, identifying existing strengths and areas for improvement.
