Today is World Suicide Prevention Day. We want you to join us as we make strides in saving lives and bringing hope, one step at a time, to those affected by suicide.
Suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death among people aged 10–14 and the 3rd leading cause of death among people aged 15-24 in the U.S. More than 45,000 Americans die by suicide every year–and far more make attempts or struggle with suicidal thoughts. Suicide and suicidal thoughts can impact anyone regardless of gender, age, or background and have an enormous ripple effect on family, friends, and communities.
Together, we can promote awareness and educate more people on how they can play a role in preventing suicide.
Let’s use today to shift public perception, spread hope and share vital information to help save lives. We aim to ensure that individuals, friends, and families have access to the resources they need to discuss suicide and seek help.
It’s okay to not be okay. If you or someone you know needs help, call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 988. Crisis Text Line also provides free, 24/7, confidential support via text message to people in crisis when they text HOME to 741741.
