What is JED Campus?
JED Campus is an initiative of the JED foundation designed to guide schools through a collaborative process of comprehensive systems, program and policy development with customized support to build upon existing student mental health, substance abuse and suicide prevention efforts. JED Campuses embark on a four-year strategic partnership with JED that not only assesses and enhances the work that is already being done, but helps to create positive, systemic change in the campus community.
How does it work?
JED Campus uses a well-developed and collaborative approach to assess and understand Landmark College’s programs, systems and challenges. After completing the initial assessment, the College received feedback and recommendations based on our responses and informed by student data gathered on our campus by the Healthy Minds Study.
JED Campus has worked with the College to develop a strategic plan for implementation over our four years in the program. While executing the strategic plan, the College is provided with ongoing support and technical assistance from a dedicated JED Campus Advisor. JED Campuses also have the opportunity to share information and resources with other schools in the program through the JED Campus Learning Community, which includes webinars, newsletters, and online resource center, and a discussion forum.
