Suicide rates for those within the agricultural community are twice that of the regular population. Stigma, droughts, economic downturns, and many other factors contribute to this unfortunate statistic. However, Southeast Health Group, along with other local stakeholders has developed COMET, or Changing our Mental and Emotional Trajectory. This program offers meaningful and engaging concepts and messages for individuals regardless of their current understanding of mental health challenges. It offers people a chance to better help themselves in a crisis or a friend or family member.
