We are joining thousands of people virtually or in person across the country this Fall in support of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention's mission to save lives and bring hope to those affected by suicide.
Our Suicide Prevention and Brain Health Rotary eClub as part of Rotary District 5810 and connected with multiple districts across our Zoneis honored to participate in the 2023 DFW Metro Community Out of the Darkness Walk. We have participated as a sponsor and team since our inception.
Our club's purpose or “CAUSE” is to promote Collaboration, Advocacy and Awareness, Understanding, Support, Education, Encouragement, and Elimination of stigma surrounding suicide prevention, postvention, support for survivors of suicide loss, brain / mental health and wellness in all forms. We offer free education programs and training plus support groups for survivors of suicide loss.
MENTAL HEALTH IS BRAIN HEALTH WHICH IS PHYSICAL HEALTH. When we think about it in this way, we see HOPE that people will begin talking about it as we would any other ache or pain. This is how we get rid of the stigma surrounding mental health and suicide.
Mental Health and Suicide Prevention is a major focus of Rotary International and provides hope that sharing messages of hope with its 1.4 million members and their networks across the world will help reduce the number of individuals who die by suicide each year while offering support to those that struggle as well as family, friends and community members affected by suicide and mental health challenges.
