Over 20 years ago Donna and Phil Satow lost their youngest son, Jed, to suicide. Suicide and drug overdoses continue to be the leading causes of death among young adults, yet at the time, schools had no model for preventing suicide on campus. Mental health struggles were shrouded in shame and secrecy while campus prevention programs were limited in scope and priority. The Jed Foundation (JED) was founded to give colleges and universities a blueprint for suicide prevention and mental health advocacy.
In the 20 years since our founding, we are proud of the strides we have made, changing the conversation around mental health and connecting with and supporting millions of young people in the U.S. But our work is far from over.
