 The suicide mortality rate has been steadily rising in Taiwan, and suicide has been among the top-ten causes of death for the last ten consecutive years. In response to this situation, Taiwan Suicide Prevention Center (TSPC) was founded in December 2005, which is under the contract to the Taiwan Department of Health and operated by Taiwanese Society of Suicidology (TSOS). Our mission is to prevent suicide through enhancing the efficiency of care delivery system networks nationwide and coordinating the efforts among the government and non-government organizations in Taiwan. All of the efforts we made are intended to promote the core values of "Saving Life, Restoring Hope", and that "Suicide Prevention is Everybody's Business". |
