The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention offers a variety of programs to help save lives and bring hope to those affected by suicide! For a full list of our programs, check out this digital programs booklet.
Some of our featured programs include:
- Talk Saves Lives Our introductory suicide prevention program and its specialty modules is appropriate for a range of audiences aged 18+.
- More Than Sad This teen-specific program is for adolescents aged 14-18, parents, and educators. We work with schools and youth-based programs to implement regular trainings.
- It's Real: College Students and Mental Health This program is designed for high school seniors and college students to encourage help-seeking with an unscripted documentary and facilitated discussion. We collaborate with schools and universities to incorporate this program into their curriculum.

Sponsor an Event
Funds donated to AFSP go towards research, prevention education programs, loss and healing resources, and advocacy. Our Out of the Darkness Walks are our largest source of funding to be able to deliver these programs and resources to the community, in addition to giving those affected by suicide a chance to come together in support and healing. Our sponsors play a huge role in making these events happen! With most sponsorship opportunities starting as low as $250, it is easy for businesses and groups of any size to support suicide prevention in their community! Sponsor packets can be easily customized for specific programs as well.
