The Campus Suicide Prevention Center of Virginia seeks to reduce risk for suicide across Virginia's 72 higher education institutions by providing training, consultation and prevention resources. Specifically, we help campuses build the infrastructure necessary to promote wellness and safety, identify and support those in distress, and effectively respond to individuals at risk for suicide. Services are available at no cost to all Virginia college and university campuses and are provided through a partnership of the Virginia Department of Health, the Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services, and the Institute for Innovation in Health and Human Services at James Madison University.
