our community partners

What does prevention mean to our community? It means shifting our focus from responding to crisis to preventing crisis. It means building skills and applying them in a variety of settings. It means providing education to our community members; collaborating with them in building a network of resources and supports; and empowering them to use and share those resources with the wider world.

FIRST LET'S

NOW WE
Collaborate

The TriCounty LifeSavers youth suicide prevention coalition is a group of community members and organizations interested in combining our resources and creativity in order to help our youth stay safe and encourage them to access the resources they need to do so. We strive to make the best use of media and communication, local, state, and national resources, our combined expertise, and relevant data to meet these goals.
