It’s also a public health career path MPH students may not hear about every day!

Su***de prevention is public health. Raising awareness, reducing stigma, strengthening social connection, and making support easier to access can help save lives.

This month, we recognize the importance of checking in with one another, learning the warning signs, and helping connect people with support when they need it.

If you or someone you know is struggling, call or text 988 to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline.
