Improve cross-campus communications, fill gaps in care, and reduce crisis risk on your campus.

Crisis and suicide risk is a rising concern on campuses across the country, prompting the need for better communication and greater collaboration between key campus stakeholders. Turning to care teams, many institutions are working on improving their current support systems to better identity and respond to students in distress, promote suicide prevention, and improve the overall mental health and well-being of the student body. 

In this resource, you’ll discover:

• How to foster better relationships with stakeholders on campus and in the community
• Which types of crisis and suicide prevention trainings are recommended
• How to support the diverse, specialized needs of your student population

Bringing together prominent higher education leaders and mental health experts, we aim to provide institutions with the right support and recommendations to establish or improve their campus care teams.
