At AFSP, our mission is to save lives and bring hope to those affected by suicide.

June is Pride Month, and AFSP is dedicated to preventing suicide among lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) people. As a public health organization, we believe it is our individual and collective responsibility to support the mental health and wellbeing of LGBTQ people.

One way we do this is by providing care and support for the LGBTQ community following a suicide death. We know firsthand the unique experiences survivors of suicide loss face in the aftermath of losing their loved one. When a suicide loss occurs in the LGBTQ community, loss survivors may face additional challenges and barriers to finding help and healing. Because we know that both grief and discrimination can impact mental health, we must make suicide loss support in all communities a priority.
