General Mental Health Information and Screening

Ulifeline

Created by the Jed Foundation, this web-based resource provides IUPUI students, faculty and staff with important mental health information. Some valuable features include:

Self e-Valuator

Students, faculty, or staff may enter information and observations regarding self or another person for who they have concern. The information provided is not meant to take the place of an evaluation by a mental health professional; however, the resulting potential diagnostic suggestions could aid in the referral process. These results may help determine if the individual would benefit from a comprehensive mental health evaluation or counseling.

Mental health and drug information library

The library is available through IntelliHealth resource, which features the consumer health information of Harvard School. More than 150 top healthcare organizations contribute to the breadth of its content, which is reviewed for accuracy by medical professionals.

Go Ask Alice!

"Alice" receives about 1,500 questions weekly from college and high school students, parents, teachers, older adults, and others. Students can pose those sometimes hard-to-ask questions about relationships, sex, sexual health issues, depression, drugs, and other physical and emotional health concerns. Go Ask Alice is Columbia University's internet site with an archive of hundreds of responses to anonymously-posed inquiries from college students and others worldwide.

Suicide Prevention

This features links to the National Hopeline Network and to IUPUI CAPS' resources. The Network provides a listing of the nearest support groups and crisis centers, as well as 24-hour per day contact with crisis counselors through calling 1-800-SUICIDE.
