Wisconsin’s Suicide Prevention Plan is designed to increase the effectiveness of suicide prevention efforts by providing statewide data along with best practices, resources, and recommended action steps.
Approaching suicide as a public health issue means intervening on the individual, interpersonal, community, organizational, and societal levels to help all Wisconsinites live their best lives and get help when they need it. Everyone can play a role in addressing suicide, and our prevention efforts are stronger when we collaborate across sectors and communities, working together towards shared goals.
This plan was created to be both practical and aspirational, and written to include something for anybody who picks it up.
