Feeling supported by friends, family, and connected to one’s community can be a protective factor for suicide. The Never a Bother campaign is a youth suicide prevention awareness campaign for young people and their parents, caregivers, and allies. Never a Bother aims to connect more youth with thoughts of suicide to help by letting them know they deserve support and are never a bother when reaching out to friends, trusted adults, counselors, and other types of support. If you are experiencing thoughts of suicide, you are not alone. Call or text 988 to reach the free and confidential Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (24/7). Trained professionals can reconnect you with your reasons to keep going and show you ways to cope with difficult days. Visit the website to learn how you can support yourself, a friend, or a youth in your care before, during, and after a crisis.
