LITTLE ROCK, Ark. - ArkaSun -- Suicide Prevention Awareness – Our work is not yet done. Let's promote hope and connectedness.
September marks Suicide Prevention Month. Recent national polls indicate that 94% of adults believe suicide can be prevented. Unfortunately, we continue to see dramatic increases in the number of youth who need care. The latest stats are sobering:
  • Almost 48,000 people died by suicide in 2021
  • That is 1 death every 11 minutes; and
  • 12 million adults thought about suicide and over 3 million made a plan.

Suicide is preventable. We are listening.

Culturally relevant mental health services, evidence-based treatments and support are available. We are listening – and we can help.
