IHC Staff & Suicide Prevention Month

As we recognize Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, IHC staff came together to show support for those impacted by suicide and to reaffirm our shared commitment to prevention, awareness, and hope. This annual photo has become a meaningful tradition through the collaboration of the Behavioral Health Department, 988 Tribal Response Program, and Zero Suicide Initiative Program. Together, we continue to promote connection, compassion, and life-saving support within our communities.

As a reminder, check in with your loved ones, check in with yourself, and remember that you are not alone. Help is available. If you or someone you know is experiencing emotional distress or mental health challenges, call, text, or chat 988 for free, confidential support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You may also contact Indian Health Council's Behavioral Health Department at 760-749-1410, Option 4, Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 6:30 PM.

💜 Hope. Connection. Support. #SuicidePreventionAwarenessMonth #988Lifeline #YouAreNotAlone #MentalHealthMatters
