In August, the American Foundation for Su***de Prevention’s Indiana Chapter hosted its inaugural Pride Pathways, bringing together over 40 participants for a half-day focused on connection, education, and LGBTQ+ community empowerment.

Pride Pathways: Su***de Prevention for LGBTQ+ Communities and Allies is an AFSP program designed to deepen understanding of how su***de impacts the LGBTQ+ community.

Ciara Myst, a local Indianapolis drag artist and RuPaul's Drag Race season 18 contestant, kicked off the event with opening remarks followed by the core Pride Pathways presentation and two breakout session.

"I walked away with a sense of pride that the residents of our small but mighty community continue to show up and show out for LGBTQIA+ advocacy, mental health support, and su***de prevention."

Shoutout to volunteer and Programs Chair, Megan W and special thanks to your Chapter Programs Manager, Brandon for coordinating and hosting!

We talk a lot about physical safety on the jobsite, but inclusion is a safety issue too. Workers who feel valued and heard are more likely to speak up, ask for help, and look out for one another.​

This Construction Inclusion Week, join us in recognizing that a truly safe jobsite is one where everyone belongs.​

If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, call or text 988.
