💙 Be a Su***de Prevention Advocate—Every Day, All Year Long 💙

You don’t need a title or a badge to make a difference. Every Airman, Guardian, civilian, retiree, and family member has the power to help save a life.

Here’s how YOU can :

👂 Listen
Give your full attention. Be present. Listen without judgment.

💬 Connect
Check in on your wingmen, coworkers, friends, and family. Sometimes a simple, genuine “How are you really doing?” can make all the difference.

🤝 Speak Up
If you’re concerned about someone, ask directly if they’re thinking about su***de. Asking the question does not plant the idea—it opens the door for honest conversation and support.

❤️ Act
If someone is in immediate danger, don’t leave them alone. Stay with them and help connect them to the care they need.
