Suicide Prevention Resources All Year Long
It takes a village.
At Sanford Behavioral Health, we practice suicide prevention every day, and we joined the community during Suicide Prevention Month to come together to save lives. It means sharing awareness campaigns, offering training, and spreading education about the risks, warning signs, and protective factors that help keep people safe.
We asked a few key staff members at Sanford to tell us what “suicide prevention” means to them. If you’d like to learn more or participate in suicide prevention, we’ve compiled a list of helpful resources and quotes from professionals at Sanford below. There is also a link to additional quotes from CEO Tracy Rogers, Clinical Director Tessa Sterling, and more.
