Show your support to raise awareness during Suicide Prevention Month!
Across the globe, many countries recognize September as Suicide Prevention Month. With mental health concerns among students on the rise, this is a much-needed time to raise awareness to help curb potential harmful instances.
In the US, suicide is a leading cause of death claiming over 45,900 people each year. As a leading cause of death among children and young adults, we all know 30 days just isn’t enough time to spread awareness for such an important topic. So, be sure to continue to raise awareness throughout the year.
Everyone can play a role in preventing suicide! There are several ways to do so, and it can be as simple as checking in to ask how someone is doing.
Here are some additional ways to get involved.
- Show your support on social media using the hashtags: #suicideprevention and #SPM23.
- Share helpful materials and resources to help increase awareness and save lives.
- Understand the warning signs and how to get help.
