Su***de awareness is 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁.

Real su***de prevention is built in the quiet, practical moments that often go unseen: creating safety plans, responding with compassion in a crisis, reducing access to lethal means, and making sure no one walks alone after the moment has passed.

These actions save lives.
These moments matter.

Many professionals are trained to identify su***de risk but not to stay present with someone in suicidal distress.
