We are a training, technical assistance, and policy development program. We do not provide crisis intervention services.
At some point, everyone will experience some form of physical and/or emotional pain in their lives. This pain can easily go unnoticed by our friends, colleagues, family, and community as our daily lives and the obligations we have require a lot of space. Those who are experiencing pain or are feeling overwhelmed may find it difficult to ask for help.
Community members have a role to play in building connected and supportive environments. Our neighbors, friends, families, and colleagues depend on us. By engaging in the work of strengthening our connections, we can normalize conversations around mental health, reduce harmful stigma surrounding suicide and suicide loss, and create environments that value all.
This site is dedicated to programming and resources that may be helpful to you or your organization. Please take a minute to review the tabs on the left side of your screen for information on suicide and self-harm specific facts and figures (under construction), general resources, professional resources, safe messaging best practices, information on our statewide suicide prevention coalition known as SPIAG, as well as contact form.
If you or someone you know is experiencing a mental health crisis. Please contact the National Suicide & Crisis Lifeline at 988. A trained operator can assist you 24/7.
