September is Su***de Prevention Awareness Month 💜

Connecting individuals and communities to the right support can make all the difference. Here are a few tips that will help us raise awareness, provide resources, promote evidence-based su***de prevention strategies, and share messages of hope and healing.

* Just Be Present- Learn the warning signs, normalize help-seeking (Mental Health is Health).

* Celebrate Your Progress- Healing isn’t the same for everyone. It’s a personal journey.

* Your Life Matters- There’s hope after a su***de attempt and after su***de loss.🌤️Take the first steps toward recovery. Find the right support for YOU!

* Signs that someone may be at risk for su***de- Prevention begins with awareness. Knowing the warning signs of su***de could save a life.

If you or someone you know is in need of help, mental health resources can be found by calling: 988 - National Su***de Prevention Lifeline.
