JED: Call for Stop & Breathe Midterms program submissions

By Cathy Michael, February 9, 2024

Stop & Breathe is scheduled for February 26th to March 3rd

The JED Mental Health & Awareness Events subcommittee wanted to reach out to your organization to provide the dates for the Spring 2024 Stop & Breathe weeks. The aim of the Stop & Breathe Week is to highlight the amazing self-care events across campus that are happening during midterms and the end of the semester, some very high stress times for students.  

Here are the dates for the Spring 2024 semester.  

  • Before Midterms: February 26th to March 3rd
  • Before Finals: April 30th to May 7th

We would be thrilled if you would submit any of your events (MS Word) that we can highlight/feature for Stop & Breathe weeks. In the past, we have highlighted a variety of events including meditation, craft making, theatre, music, and bingo. 

We are asking all events to be submitted at least 1 week prior to the start of each week to assist with marketing. 

Stop & Breathe!

Stop and Breathe  Week

This semester we would like to try implementing a Stop & Breathe raffle to further incentivize the event attendance and promote well-being. We will be asking sponsoring organizations/offices to please provide attendance information for anyone that wants to enter a raffle. For every event someone attends they will earn a chance to win a self-care item (for anyone that attends more than 3 events they will earn 10 bonus entries).
