Asha Clinic Opens for Suicide Care | Montpelier News

A groundbreaking new clinic dedicated to suicide care has launched in Burlington, Vermont — the Asha Clinic, the first of its kind in the region. Designed to treat suicidal thoughts as a primary concern, it offers evidence-based therapies to reduce ideation, prevent attempts, and boost well-being. A joint effort by UVM, UVM Health, and the Four Pines Fund — founded by grieving parents after losing their son to suicide — the clinic can serve up to 100 patients with personalized crisis planning and coping strategies. While not a crisis center, it’s part of a growing movement including events like the Afterglow Foundation’s music festival (Sept 19) raising funds for prevention programs.
