You can help save a life.

Learn su***de warning signs, securely store potentially harmful items, trust your instincts to ask directly about suicidal thoughts and memorize the 988 Su***de and Crisis Lifeline number so help is just a phone call or text away.

September ends. Showing up doesn't.

Su***de prevention isn't limited to a crisis moment. It can look like checking in. Listening. Helping someone connect with care. Following up tomorrow, next week, and after the hardest moment has passed.

Awareness months gives us a reason to talk about it. The work of building connection and community continues all year.

If you or a Veteran you know is in crisis, dial 988 and press 1 to reach the Veterans Crisis Line.

A conversation about safety can make a difference.

You may not always know what someone is experiencing. A check-in, a listening ear, a number shared at the right moment, can make a real difference.

***dePrevention starts with connection.
