AFSP's Suicide Prevention Education Programs
The global pandemic has put a strain on many people’s mental health, with many reporting increased stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and a range of other psychological symptoms. More than half (52%) of all Americans reported in a 2020 Harris Poll that they personally have become more open to talking about mental health since the start of the pandemic, and 81% said that as a result of the pandemic, it is more important than ever to make suicide prevention a national priority. This time of uncertainty has led to a growing understanding that we all have mental health, and that we all need to be there for one another. Right now, suicide prevention is more important than ever before.
The more informed we all are about mental health and suicide prevention, the better equipped friends, families, and neighbors are to connect those who are struggling to help. Beginning in March, at the start of the pandemic, the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention quickly altered our life-saving education programs to be delivered virtually. Since that time, more than 500 suicide prevention education programs have been delivered virtually through our73 chapters across the United States
