This is Part Two of Lakeisha’s story. In Part One, we introduced the powerful friendship between Lakeisha and her Wayspring Engagement Specialist, Kanitha. In Part Two, we explore her full experience with Wayspring.

After moving to a new city, Lakeisha described life as confusing and chaotic. She couldn’t find the resources she needed — until Wayspring stepped in. We became her healthcare provider for both physical and mental health, and connected her to a dentist, an eye doctor, and ensured she had access to essential resources that make life easier, like housing, food, and more.

Today, Lakeisha finally feels seen, heard, and cared for. She’s not just another number — she’s has a full team that shows up, listens, and reminds her she matters.

🌍 Today is World Su***de Prevention Day.

Every year, more than 720,000 lives are lost to su***de worldwide.

It’s a reminder that su***de is not just a statistic—it’s a public health crisis that touches families, communities, and individuals everywhere. 💛

Together, we can change the narrative by engaging in open and honest conversations about su***de and suicidal behavior. These vital discussions help break down barriers, raise awareness, and build cultures of understanding and support.

Learn more about how you can help spread awareness from the International Association for Su***de Prevention.
