Suicide is a preventable mental health crisis. The primary obstacle to suicide prevention is silence.
Proactive suicide prevention means starting the conversation on mental health before it adversely impacts our lives.
At Hope For The Day®, we strive to eliminate the highest risk factors of suicide through outreach, mental health education, and community action.
We are introducing and pressing the conversation in communities and raising the visibility of information and resources in order to shatter the silence and dispel stigma surrounding mental health.
Resources
We create physical and digital resources that disseminate information for immediate support. We have distributed more than 1 million resource cards across the globe in 17 different languages.
Events
We make this conversation visible at a wide array of public events. We have accomplished more than one thousand live event actions, directly engaging more than 1 million individuals in 50 states in America, and 26 countries around the world.
