💙 September is Suicide Prevention Month—a time to raise awareness, spread hope, and remind one another that no one has to struggle alone.

Take time to check in with yourself, your friends, your family members, and those around you. Learn the warning signs, ask how someone is really doing, and listen without judgment. A simple conversation can help save a life.

Reaching out for mental health support is not a sign of weakness—it is a sign of strength.

📞 If you or someone you know is experiencing a crisis:

• Call or text 988
• Chat with a trained counselor at 988lifeline.org
• TTY users may use their preferred relay service or dial 711, then 988
• If someone is in immediate danger, call 911

The 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline is free, confidential, and available 24/7.

You matter. You are valued. You are not alone. 💛
