Su***de is a critical public health issue, taking the lives of over 720,000 people each year. Every loss deeply impacts families, friends, workplaces, and entire communities, leaving lasting social, emotional, and economic effects around the globe.
The focus for World Su***de Prevention Day from 2024 to 2026 is “𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗡𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗼𝗻 𝗦𝘂𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗱𝗲.” This theme encourages us to confront damaging myths, reduce stigma, and promote honest, compassionate conversations about su***de. It emphasizes moving away from silence and misunderstanding toward openness, empathy, and support, so people feel safe to reach out and ask for help.
Changing the narrative also means pushing for real systemic change. It involves making su***de prevention and mental health a priority in public policy, urging governments and organizations to act. This includes creating and applying evidence-based approaches, expanding access to quality care, and ensuring that anyone in distress gets the support they need.
KSP Studios created this poster in the most simple way possible, to highlight what is important: HELPLINES.
It's never too late to seek HELP.
It's not a weakness to ask for HELP.
And most importantly, It's never too late to OFFER HELP. Talk to your friends, colleagues, peers, and family members, and ask one simple question: "𝙆𝙪𝙢𝙪𝙨𝙩𝙖 𝙠𝙖?".
