What the grant funds

The purpose of this program is to implement suicide prevention and intervention programs for adults (with an emphasis on older adults, adults in rural areas, and American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) adults) that help implement the 2021 Surgeon General’s Call to Action to Implement the National Strategy for Suicide Prevention (PDF 708 KB). This program is intended to address the Call to Action’s broad-based public health approach to suicide prevention by enhancing collaboration with key community stakeholders (e.g., county health departments, workplace settings, criminal justice settings, senior-serving organizations, community firearm stakeholders), raising awareness of the available resources for suicide prevention, and implementing lethal means safety.
