Suicide is the second leading cause of death among college students.

Active Minds, a club on campus, works to decrease the stigma of mental health.

There are over 400 chapters of the organization around the country.

The ESU club achieved a five-star chapter rank.

With September being Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, Many students signed a pledge to help put a stop to suicide universally.

Freshman students often have a rough transition from moving away for the first time.

Active Minds encourages individuals to come together as a community.
