If you’re supporting someone in crisis, you don’t have to do it alone. Professional suicide prevention resources can provide guidance, tools, and support to help you navigate these difficult moments. Explore trusted resources from experts in the field and learn how to offer the right help when it’s needed most. Hope is possible, and help is available.
By focusing on these protective factors, you can begin to build resilience and discover the strength within yourself. Building faith in yourself, your community, or a higher power is essential in preventing suicidal thoughts and creating a future full of hope. Take the first step today—there is always support available when you need it, and you have the power to create positive change in your life.
If you want to be better equipped to support others, consider taking suicide prevention and intervention training. Programs like LivingWorks Start teach individuals how to recognize when someone is thinking about suicide and how to connect them to help.
These courses can help build a safer, more supportive environment and prepare you to make a positive impact on those at risk.
