Youth Suicide: Mental Health Awareness Month

Mental Health Awareness Month affords us the opportunity to seek more information to help those who are our friends, relatives, and associates. Since 2020, the number of youth who have their lives ended by suicide has increased and for some communities of color, (although number are rising for those who seek the assistance of mental health professionals), suicides are increasing. Check out this short podcast to learn a few key points and take the message to your friends and family. Let’s break the cycle! *Sources for this segment of Bits & Pieces are provided within the podcast. Narrator: Youth Coordinator, B.R.S.
