What We Do
The Clermont County Suicide Prevention Coalition is a volunteer community-based group that works to promote suicide prevention activities throughout the County and bring about changes in attitudes and perceptions surrounding suicide and its connection with mental health concerns.
The vision of the Coalition is threefold:
- Increase community awareness of the prevalence of suicide, prevention strategies and available resources.
- Improve access to intervention and treatment services.
- Remove the stigma attached to suicide and mental health disorders.
The Coalition received grant funding from the Ohio Suicide Prevention Foundation in 2020 to complete a community readiness assessment to determine the goals for the Coalition.
