💜 SU***DE PREVENTION AWARENESS MONTH 💜

September is a reminder that su***de prevention starts with noticing, listening, and reaching out.

Sometimes a friend, family member, coworker, or neighbor may be the first person to notice that something has changed. Watch for signs such as withdrawal, hopelessness, major mood changes, talking about death or feeling like a burden, or increased alcohol/drug use.

💜 IN REMEMBRANCE 💜

Today, we also remember the lives lost to su***de.
They were more than a statistic. They were someone’s child, parent, sibling, friend, coworker, or neighbor.

🕯️ May their stories remind us why every conversation, every check-in, and every act of kindness matters.

For those we’ve lost — you are remembered.
For those who are struggling — you are not alone.
