National Suicide Prevention week is observed this week, Sept. 11-16. Everyone on campus can play a role in protecting their friends, family members and colleagues from suicide. Everyone can take simple action steps to be there for someone who is struggling or in crisis. Start today by taking the online Ask Listen Refer training at http://www.asklistenrefer.org/mst. Contact counseling, disability services and student wellness for information regarding suicide prevention on campus. Throughout Suicide Prevention Week, look for more specific steps you can take to help the people in your life. Get more details at http://counsel.mst.edu.
