The Jill Campaign

Skip Side Navigation

The JILL Campaign started in 2007 at the University of Oklahoma in memory of Jill Lauren Cohen, the J.I.L.L. Campaign has a mission to help students, parents, and faculty recognize the signs of depression and to learn healthy ways to cope with the stresses of college life.

Jill was a 20 years-old journalism major who was known for her vivacious personality and quick wit. She was an incredible person who was deeply loved by family and friends. Like many others who suffer from depression, Jill sought relief from pain through the use of alcohol and binge drinking. Depression is the second leading cause of death among college students.

We hope you will read and share the information on this site and be inspired to Love your Life.
