Mission Statement

AFSP’s Mission: Save Lives and Bring Hope to Those Affected by Suicide

Established in 1987, the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) is a voluntary health organization that gives those affected by suicide a nationwide community empowered by research, education and advocacy to take action against this leading cause of death. We are the largest private donors to suicide prevention research in the world.

AFSP is dedicated to saving lives and bringing hope to those affected by suicide.  AFSP creates a culture that’s smart about mental health by engaging in the following core strategies:

  • Funding scientific research
  • Educating the public about mental health and suicide prevention
  • Advocating for public policies in mental health and suicide prevention
  • Supporting survivors of suicide loss and those affected by suicide

The Indiana Chapter of AFSP was chartered in 2008. We are an award-winning statewide chapter with volunteers sprinkled in all 92 counties of the Crossroads of America. We are the first (and currently only) state to have an AFSP plate.
