This campaign, launched in the fall of 2018, set the goal of training 4,098 people, which equals 6 people for every 1 person who died by suicide between 2006-2016 in Boulder and Broomfield Counties. The hope of the campaign was to create a community of support around those who experience suicidal ideation, prevent future suicides by educating individuals on how to recognize when someone is reaching out for help, and how to effectively respond.
While this is an important milestone to reach, Mental Health Partners is continuing the important work of the ‘Be 1 of 4098’ campaign by launching phase two of the campaign – ‘1,000 more!’ To read their full statement, and learn how you can get involved, please visit this link: www.mhpcolorado.org/mental-health-partners-reaches-goal-in-be-1-of-4098-suicide-prevention-campaign
