Abstract

The Green Bandana Project raises mental health awareness, reduces stigma, and connects students to mental health and suicide prevention resources. The GBP promotes the importance of mental health support and suicide awareness across collage campuses. The analyzation of self, faculty and staff referrals, can inspire other college campuses to introduce GBP into their community, destigmatizing discussions about suicide and mental health support for undergraduate students.
