September is Suicide Prevention Month. Communities across the country raised awareness, spread hope, and encouraged meaningful conversations about suicide prevention.

 

Support, connection, and compassion are important every day, not just in September.

 

Take time to check in with someone you care about. Listen without judgment. Encourage someone who may be struggling to reach out for support. A simple conversation can be an important first step.

 

Berks TASC and Awaken Mental Health are here to support our community. If you or someone you know is struggling with substance use, recovery, or related challenges, reaching out for help is a sign of strength.
