The goal in becoming proactive is to close the gap between the onset of symptoms and intervention with treatment and support. Shattering concealment culture will reduce harm and save lives, not just today, but every day. #TogetherWeCan transform mental health.

While these tools do reduce harm, it’s not enough to just offer resources after or during crisis. This approach is due to #ConcealmentCulture which shapes how we engage mental health personally, socially, and institutionally.

Today is #WorldSuicidePreventionDay! Globally, the WHO indicates that over 720,000 people die by suicide yearly. In America, the CDC shows more than 49,000 people die by suicide annually. Our current tools for suicide prevention & mental health care are reactive.

That number is up from 132 persons per day in 2021, a 2.1% rate increase. #TogetherWeCan halt this accelerating pace. Through Proactive Prevention, we can drive back and reduce the rates of harm! #HopeForUs #SuicidePrevention #ProactivePrevention #Hope4Us #WeHaveHope

September is #SuicidePreventionMonth. Rates of harm are at an all-time high. As a reactive approach, mental health resources exist to reach those in crisis but we need to change our perspective. We don’t just have to react to crises.
