Employee Resource Groups Give Everyone a Voice
Employee Resource Groups, or ERGs, serve as a bridge between employees and leadership, providing insight on inclusion challenges and opportunities. They lead cultural awareness events and initiatives to foster dialogue and education, offer mentorship and networking opportunities for underrepresented employees, and advocate for policy and program changes that enhance equity within AFSP.
We are Proud to Lead the Fight Against Suicide
Everything we do at the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention is supported by scientific research: from our education and loss support programs, to our advocacy efforts, partnerships, and national public campaigns that raise our culture’s understanding of how we can all make a difference.
We are proud to lead the fight against suicide, and share what we have learned — as individuals and as a movement — as we continue to learn, and take action to make a difference.
