A Guide to Campus Mental Health Action Planning

The Guide to Campus Mental Health Action Planning was developed by the JED Foundation and the Education Development Center. The guide provides a step-by-step process to assist institutions with creating robust mental health promotion programs that can support effective suicide preventions and interventions for students.

The guide is structured around three main pillars:

  • Building the infrastructure and culture to sustain mental health promotion and suicide prevention
  • Strategic planning to identify gaps and choose or develop programming to meet these priorities
  • Strategies for stronger mental health promotion and suicide prevention

A list of resources is included in the guide to support campuses with mental health action planning.
