Mental Health Month: The JED Foundation

As a part of Mental Health Month, our Graduate Education and Research Commission would like to highlight the JED Foundation. This foundation focuses on the prevention of suicide and reducing emotional distress among college students. The JED Foundation estimates that slightly over 1,000 college students will commit suicide each year and one in 10 college students has considered committing suicide (JED Foundation website, 2009).
