MindWise on Campus: Suicide Prevention for Students (and staff) Course

MindWise on Campus is a 30-minute, self-guided online training that uses video and interactive learning to teach students how to ACT (Acknowledge, Care, Tell) if they're worried about themselves or a friend.

Because mental health concerns often first appear between the ages of 18 and 25, it's our goal to provide students access to the wide range of suicide prevention and mental health resources that are available to them during their time at COS.

The MindWise on Campus course uses real and diverse stories of mental health struggles and recovery to provide students with resources and actionable steps to support themselves and their peers.
