According to the CDC, feeling connected to school, community & other social institutions can help prevent suicide. It is also important for our communities to have high quality physical & behavioral healthcare. #VitALalabama #ProjectZeroSuicide #SuicideAwareness #StoptheStigma

Studies have shown that inclusive and nondiscriminatory environments help protect people from the hopelessness that can lead to thoughts of suicide. #VitALalabama #ProjectZeroSuicide #SuicideAwareness #StoptheStigma

It can remove some negative connotations when we change the language we use. Phrases like ā€œcommitted suicideā€ can give the wrong impression. Using ā€œdied by suicideā€ is more direct and removes the blame & stigma. #VitALalabama #ProjectZeroSuicide #StoptheStigma #ZeroSuicide

Most people with thoughts of suicide don’t want to die. If you see warning signs, trust your gut & ask directly. Support them with resources like call/text 988 or the Connect Alabama app. #VitALalabama #ProjectZeroSuicide #SuicideAwareness #StoptheStigma #ZeroSuicide

Parents… If you send an encouraging email to your child’s teacher, please know there is a good chance they will print it out and save it in a file. They will reread it when they are feeling down. Your encouraging words will go a long way. P.S. It’s Teacher Appreciation Week.

Instead of saying someone is ā€œsuicidal,ā€ we could say that they are ā€œhaving suicidal thoughtsā€ or ā€œfacing suicide.ā€ People are more than their suicidal thoughts! We don’t want that to define them. Post hashtags: #VitALalabama #ProjectZeroSuicide #SuicideAwareness #StoptheStigma
