Each college and university is supported by one of our trained Campus Advisors, professionals in higher education and public and mental health who understand the opportunities and challenges of colleges and universities. Their mission is to support and build your team’s capacity to achieve your goals. Your success is their success.
No two campuses are the same, which is why we conduct a thorough evaluation of your specific college or university’s strengths and student mental health needs. We then help you create an institution-wide strategic plan that will efficiently and effectively enhance what already works and innovate to address unmet needs and create a safety net specific to your students.
JED is at the forefront of suicide prevention. We help you make informed decisions and enhance policies, programs, and resources with insight into clinically reviewed and peer-informed best practices.
JED is dedicated to making our programs accessible to colleges and universities. Learn more about our fee structure and opportunities for funding JED Campus programs at your college or university.

The JED Campus Program is about more than responding to mental health crises. It is also about proactively considering the many factors that impact college students’ wellness, and then working across the college to mitigate challenges and amplify strategies that work. – Dianna Graves, Assistant Vice President and Dean of Students at Claremont McKenna College
