September is Suicide Prevention Month
September is National Suicide Prevention Month – a time to remember the lives lost to suicide, acknowledge the millions more who have experienced suicidal thoughts, and the many individuals, families and communities that have been impacted by suicide. It’s also a time to raise awareness about suicide prevention and share messages of hope.
Tuesday September 10th is Suicide Awareness Day at PE&T. The 5th floor office will have awareness paraphernalia. Please stop by throughout the day!
