Today, as Su***de Prevention Month begins, the Rural Health Excellence Institute (RHEI) team is participating in the global virtual conference ๐ง๐ผ๐ด๐ฒ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฑ: ๐๐ฐ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป, ๐๐ป๐ด๐ฎ๐ด๐ฒ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐ & ๐๐ฑ๐๐ผ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ ๐ถ๐ป ๐ฆ๐๐ถ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฒ ๐ฃ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป, joining advocates, providers, researchers, and community leaders committed to saving lives and strengthening prevention efforts.
Su***de remains a critical public health challenge. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), more than 720,000 people die by su***de each year, and su***de is the third leading cause of death among young people ages 15-29 worldwide.
Throughout the day, our team will be engaging with local, regional, statewide, national, and global responses to this public health problem. We look forward to sharing resources, insights, and promising practices that can help strengthen our efforts to improve behavioral health across Michigan's rural communities. Stay tuned as we continue advancing su***de prevention through our PRiSMM initiative and emerging rural behavioral health programs. Together, we can build stronger systems of support, increase awareness, reduce stigma, and help ensure that more individuals and families have access to the resources they need.
