Summit County Suicide Prevention Coalition - Hope & Resiliency

The Summit County Suicide Prevention Coalition helps provide the community with hope and resiliency in its aim to reduce the number of deaths by suicide in Summit County—especially in high-risk populations.

Every year, lives are lost to suicide in our community. The Coalition offers free training and consultation for community groups to raise awareness of suicide as a public health issue and to educate the public about how to recognize and respond to someone who needs help. To arrange for an educational program on suicide prevention, contact [email protected] or call 330.376.9494 x211.

If you are in crisis, please call the local crisis line at 330.434.9144 or dial 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

Area statistics surrounding suicide are available on the County of Summit Alcohol, Drug Addiction & Mental Health Services (ADM) Board website at https://www.admboard.org/suicide-prev.... The ADM Board aggregates suicide data in conjunction with the Summit County Medical Examiner's Office.
