Obviously, this a cause that is near and dear to me because of my involvement in the national Out of the Darkness Overnight Walks. The month of September provides the opportunity to raise additional awareness about this crisis and share important information and resources to individuals, friends and families. Suicidal thoughts and mental health problems although increasingly common should be considered one of our highest priorities. The more awareness, access and resources we provide to our community will undoubtedly lead to saved lives. #SuicidePreventionMonth
