The University of Tampa is a JED Campus Alumni Member
In 2018, The University of Tampa partnered with The Jed Foundation (JED), a leading nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting emotional health and preventing suicide among young adults. JED Campus is a signature program of The Jed Foundation designed to guide schools through a 5-year collaborative process of comprehensive systems, program and policy development with customized support to build upon existing student mental health, substance use and suicide prevention efforts.
To become a JED campus, UT worked to assess and enhance the policies, programming, services and outreach aimed at supporting students’ emotional well-being and preventing suicide and substance abuse. The multi-year strategic collaboration not only assessed and enhanced the work that was already being done, but helped create positive, lasting, systemic change in the campus community. As an alumni member, JED Campus continues to partner with UT, and provide support for student mental health, as well as assessment tools, feedback reports and ongoing technical assistance from the JED Campus team of clinicians.
