TWLOHA

💙 Participate in one of our Suicide Prevention Trainings. 💙 Throughout the next few months, we are hosting several QPR Suicide Prevention Trainings starting as soon as August 26th. For just $20, this virtual training will equip you to be prepared in a moment of crisis. Sign up now at twloha.com/events! QPR stands for Question, Persuade, and Refer—the 3 simple steps anyone can learn to help save a life from suicide. Just as people trained in CPR and the Heimlich Maneuver help save thousands of lives each year, people trained in QPR learn how to recognize the warning signs of a suicide crisis and how to question, persuade, and refer someone to help.

We are excited to support high schools across the US by bringing conversations and mental health resources into their classrooms. Last year we helped 100 schools get resources to over 72,000 high school students and we can’t wait to help more students know that they are not alone and that help is out there. This fall the registration process will look a little different. For the fall semester of the 2024-2025 school year, registration will be open from August 21st to September 18th. US high schools are eligible to register for Between the Bells and accepted schools will receive the program at no cost. These schools will be notified by September 25th. We will provide schools the opportunity to remain on a waiting list in the event that another school drops out and/or additional grant funding is secured. Want to learn more about Between the Bells or register? Head to twloha.com/highschool 👉 Our goal, always, is to reach as many students as possible. If you want to help us continue to provide this program at no cost to schools, reach out to highschool@twloha.com to learn how you can help!

Suicide prevention is so much more than just the crisis moment. It happens in our everyday actions. It happens when we give ourselves space to check in, even if it’s just five minutes. It happens when we honor what we’re feeling, and respect our needs as best we can. We created pleasestayalive.com as a one-stop shop for resources and support. Whether you’re in a really heavy moment and need to connect with someone immediately, or just need some activities to help you re-regulate, you deserve to have access to those tools. Check it out and make sure to keep these resources on hand: pleasestayalive.com.

What people believe about suicide determines what people do about suicide prevention. If we as a community believe nothing can be done, nothing will be done. This is the first lie we tear down as we take action in suicide prevention. Learn more about these action steps and how to get involved from right where you are at twloha.com/stay.
