Suicide Prevention Awareness

September is Suicide Prevention Month

Suicidal thoughts, like mental health conditions, can impact anyone, regardless of age, gender, or background. While these thoughts are common, they should never be seen as normal, as they often signal more serious underlying issues.

September is Suicide Prevention Month, a critical time to raise awareness about this urgent crisis. Throughout this month, we aim to change public perceptions, offer hope, and provide essential information to those affected by suicide. Our goal is to ensure that individuals, friends, and families have the resources they need to talk about suicide prevention and seek help.

 

Suicide Prevention Resources

September is Suicide Prevention and Awareness Month, a time to shine a light on the critical issue of suicide and promote resources and support for those affected.
Suicide is a leading cause of death, with over 49,000 lives lost annually in the United States alone. It’s a global health crisis that affects people of all ages, genders, and
backgrounds.
