How do we differ from other national programs that include suicide prevention in their mission?
As the only federally funded resource center for suicide prevention, SPRC focuses on increasing capacity to implement the NSSP across the United States. Through strong partnerships, SPRC can more effectively share knowledge and resources, stimulate innovation and change, and promote effective prevention strategies. SPRC works closely with states to build coalitions and develop and implement state plans. Many of our partners focus on research, survivor support, or awareness raising and we rely upon their efforts so that we may all jointly reduce stigma and prevent suicides.
