Every September, we come together to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and remind each other that help and hope are always available.
Su***de prevention starts with connection, reaching out, checking in, and reminding people that they are not alone. You donโt need to have the perfect words; sometimes, just being there and listening can make all the difference.
Hereโs how you can help this month (and every month):
๐Start a conversation โ Ask a friend, โHow are you, really?โ
๐Listen with empathy โ Offer your presence without judgment.
๐Encourage support โ Gently guide them to talk to a professional, support service, or someone they trust.
๐Be consistent โ Follow up and let them know you care.
