Our Nationwide Initiative to Reduce the Annual Rate of Suicide in the U.S. 20% by 2025

Despite the fact that more is being done today to prevent suicide than at any other time in history, suicide is still the tenth leading cause of death in the U.S. Together with guidance from the top minds in the field and by using dynamic data modeling, we understand the programs, policies and interventions that will prevent as many suicides as possible. Using data that specify who we are losing to suicide and how we are losing them, AFSP’s board of expert advisors has honed a comprehensive plan to save lives.
