After a su***de attempt, recovery can bring a lot of emotions, and there’s no “right” way to feel.

You may experience anger, confusion, relief, guilt, anxiety, shame, grief, or a mix of feelings that changes from day to day. You are not alone, and your su***de attempt does not define who you are.

OSPF's new Support for Su***de Attempt Survivors resource offers practical guidance for navigating recovery.

Recovery takes time, and you don’t have to navigate it alone. You can also reach out to 988 anytime, even if you’re not in an active crisis or experiencing suicidal thoughts.

A Sign of Hope in Our Parks

💙 A special THANK YOU to the United Way Community Care Day volunteers from Calvary Christian School! 💙

These dedicated volunteers spent their day installing 988 Crisis Stop Signs throughout Bellefontaine City Parks and at West Liberty Lions Park—helping bring a message of hope, connection, and support to places throughout our community.

Parks are places where people go to walk, reflect, find peace, and sometimes process difficult moments in their lives. For someone experiencing a mental health or su***de crisis, that moment of reflection can sometimes become a life-changing decision. Strategically placed crisis stop signs can serve as a powerful reminder: You are not alone. Help is available. Your life matters.

The Su***de Prevention Coalition of Logan and Champaign Counties purchased these signs through grant funding from the Public Health Fund of Ohio, making it possible to update and expand this important community resource.

This update was especially important because the crisis signs that have been in our community since 2021 featured our local crisis line, 1-800-224-0422, which was discontinued on June 30, 2026. The new signs provide the current, nationwide 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline information so people can connect with help when they need it most.

To the volunteers who gave their time and energy to install these signs: thank you for helping our community create places of hope and connection. Your work may reach someone at a moment when it matters most.

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