Fifty-eight percent of individuals who die by suicide have no mental health diagnosis—underscoring that suicide is often a social issue, not just a clinical one. Suicidal thoughts frequently arise from everyday stressors at home, work, school, or in relationships. Your everyday interactions can be powerful moments of connection that help prevent suicide. This training is open to everyone—including health professionals, educators, first responders, faith leaders, community organizers, and parents. Everyone can make a difference in suicide prevention!
