We’re committed to ending su***de in the construction industry this ***dePreventionWeek and beyond. 💛

Our program, Hard Hat Courage, is helping the construction industry evolve to a culture that emphasizes and prioritizes the importance of mental health and su***de prevention today but is also building a lasting infrastructure for system change.

Taking a few minutes to check out our Toolbox Talk “Understanding Su***de in Construction” can help us achieve lasting change. Get started at hardhatcourage.com/toolboxtalks

As ***dePreventionWeek comes to an end, we want to reiterate the importance of connection in the fight against su***de.

Together, we can raise lifesaving funds, conduct critical su***de prevention research, deliver education programs, provide support for those who’ve lost someone, and galvanize Volunteer Advocates, and more. When people come together, hope can win.
