September is Su***de Prevention & Awareness Month

Su***de can affect anyone — and sometimes the people who are struggling most may not look like they’re struggling at all.

This month, we’re encouraging our community to start the conversation, check in, and know the signs.

You can help by:
• Asking someone directly, “Are you thinking about suicide?”
• Listening without judgment or trying to immediately fix the situation
• Taking changes in mood, behavior, or appearance seriously
• Helping someone connect with a trusted person or professional
• Checking in again — your continued support can make a difference

If you or someone you know is struggling, help is available 24/7.

📞 Call or text 988 to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline.
💻 988lifeline.org

You don’t have to have the perfect words. Sometimes, simply saying “I’m here. You’re not alone.” is a powerful place to start.

💛 Let’s make our community a place where it’s okay to ask for help, okay to talk, and okay to not be okay.
