September is Suicide Awareness Month: Understanding Risk; Embracing Treatment, Hope, and Resilience
- Suicide is preventable. Combining knowledge, care, and compassion can make a real impact.
- Suicide is complex and influenced by many interconnected factors. Knowing the warning signs of suicide saves lives.
- Preventing suicide means understanding risk, accessing supportive, proven care, and sharing hope because healing is possible.
- With the right support, people can heal, build resilience, and thrive after crisis.
- Hope and resilience grow when people feel heard. This can guide people to find strength even in their darkest moments.
- There is no “right” way to heal and recover; support should meet people where they are. Healing is personal. Every journey is different.
