Building a Culture of Care and Connection
As part of the University of Nebraska at Omaha’s ongoing commitment to student mental health, we are proud to partner with the Jed Foundation (JED), a national leader in emotional well-being and suicide prevention. Through the JED Campus program, we will strengthen our approach to mental health, substance misuse, and suicide prevention. Together, we aim to build a lasting culture of well-being, hope, and resilience for every Maverick.
