The Mental Health Flock is a team of students, staff and faculty that work collectively to improve the mental wellness of the Ithaca College campus community. Our team is comprised of working subcommittees that meet throughout the academic year to implement mental health initiatives and work towards best practices to promote the mental wellness of our students.
The Mental Health Flock originated from the JED Campus Committee, and rebranded to the Mental Health Flock in Summer 2024, to carry on our work and build brand and name recognition following the momentum of our popular GEESE Initiative, a mental health campaign developed and implemented by the communications subcommittee.
In Fall 2024 Ithaca College Graduated from the JED Campus initiative, a 4-year evidence-based program, to cultivate a campus community that fosters emotional wellness and works towards suicide prevention. We are proud to have graduated from this national recognized program and have shared our final campus report from the JED Foundation below, as well as a half-way progress report.
