1,809 Ohioans died by suicide in 2019 and the pandemic has heightened concerns about mental health and suicide. According to the Ohio Department of Health, suicide is the second-leading cause of death for youth ages 15-19 and the leading cause of death for children ages 10-14.
These alarming numbers and statistics have created a readiness for a suicide prevention program in Ohio designed to support the mental health and wellness of Ohio’s young people.
