We all have a role to play in preventing suicides. Suicide is a complex problem, but through our collective action, we can save lives. New York State is committed to preventing suicides. This site was designed to provide a comprehensive set of tools, information, and resources to support the effort.
A crisis can happen at any time. And it isn’t always a life-threatening situation.
Maybe you’re stressed about school, work, family or your housing situation? Maybe you’re a new parent and are overwhelmed?
There’s a new way to reach out.
New York State has partnered with Crisis Text Line, an anonymous texting service available 24/7. Starting a conversation is easy. Text GOT5 to 741741 or Got5U to 741741 if you’re a college student. We’ve got time to talk.
