Share your National Suicide Prevention Week stories

We’re now in the midst of National Suicide Prevention Week and tomorrow is World Suicide Prevention Day. We’ve seen tons of great graphics, articles, tips, fact sheets, infographics, and more being shared on the websites and social media feeds of all the top suicide prevention industry organizations.
But we know that it’s you guys at the crisis and suicide prevention hotlines that are often on the front lines providing direct services like listening, safety planning, intervening, and spreading messages of hope to the people chatting, texting, or calling you. Your openness to talking about topics that make most people uncomfortable deeply impacts your clients in a positive way. And we know you’re also participating with your own awareness plans this month. So we’d love to draw some attention to your work and any local or national exposure you may be getting.
Has anyone on your staff been interviewed by the media and provided quotes for news articles? Has your helpline been profiled or highlighted by a newspaper or online media? Are you holding a fundraiser?
We’d really like to share links to articles, photos, etc. to promote the ways your helpline has participated in suicide prevention and awareness activities this month. Please leave a comment below, or , and we’ll share your stories throughout the rest of this month.
