Initiatives & Activities
Our work is reflective of the comprehensive approach recommended by the JED Foundation.
Increasing Help-Seeking Behavior
Development of posters, stickers, and graphics to increase awareness of emergency services available to potential students in crisis. We encourage you to use and share the "It's OK to not be OK" flier linked below, it provides easy access to resources in times of need.
Identifying Students At-Risk
Added a mental health screening tool to Health & Wellness webpages & W&M Wellness app to broaden reach and usage.
Follow Crisis Management Procedures
Cross-referenced emergency numbers across Health & Wellness webpages.
Identifying Students At-Risk
Launched the Seize the Awkward campaign across campus. The campaign brings awareness to ways students can engage in conversations with others about mental health.
