September 10th is WORLD SUICIDE PREVENTION DAY





Did you know that over 1 million people die by suicide each year? 

That's a death by suicide very 40 seconds.

Suicide is THE most preventable kind of death. 

Education, resources, intervention and outreach can help children and adults who struggle with staggering sadness, hopelessness and despair.

One of the most far-reaching campaigns is World Suicide Prevention Day. 

This health education program is sponsored by The International Association for Suicide Prevention, The World Health Organization, The United Nations and many grass root organizations and agencies every year on September 10th.
