Reducing the Risk of Suicide at JMU
Any member of the JMU campus community may come into contact with someone struggling with thoughts of suicide. Being aware of distress signals, ways to intervene, and sources of support for the student can help us respond more effectively to such situations. Saving the life of a student might come down to us having the right knowledge and being available in the right place at the right time. The Counseling Center clinical staff is available to students, faculty, and staff for consultation regarding these issues.
