Great Minds Dare to Care
The Great Minds Dare to Care is a University-wide collaborative suicide prevention initiative designed to foster shared responsibility for building a community of care at Seton Hall University. This initiative will provide all Seton Hall Community members with opportunities to engage in trainings, resources, and activities, that will promote tools and strategies for managing mental health and helping others. A sense of community and belonging is a major factor associated with student wellness and the prevention of suicide.
Ways to Dare to Care

Your organization is invited to submit a proposal to request Dare to Care support of your wellness program. Whether you need funding to bring a speaker to campus or some extra resources and materials to elevate your program to the next level, we are here to help you make a difference in our community.
