National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month
September is a time to remember the lives lost to suicide and people who are living with depression. In the United States, it’s a leading cause of death and is an important topic to discuss with loved ones. Take time to raise awareness about mental health by sharing resources with loved ones or colleagues this month. It’s also a great time to share inspirational stories of hope too.
This international campaign focuses on acknowledging the challenges of people living with Alzheimer’s and dementia, their families, and those who care for them. Unfortunately, the number of people who live with these diseases is expected to triple by 2050. This makes it that much more important to recognize the risk factors associated with developing it and steps to take toward reducing your risk of developing it in the future.
