The Riverside County Suicide Prevention Coalition

Riverside County is facing a critical challenge: the rising number of suicides among adults and older adults. Each loss deeply affects families and friends, creating a wave of grief and suffering. However, there is hope. Together, we can fight this issue.

The Riverside County Suicide Prevention Coalition, formed in 2020, aims to eliminate suicide deaths in our county. A vital part of our strategy is education. We can build a community that safeguards everyone by learning to recognize warning signs and how to support those in crisis. Everyone can learn the skills to help keep people safer from suicide. We all have a role to play in suicide prevention, and the Riverside County Suicide Prevention Coalition offers FREE trainings that allow you to choose what role you want to play. No prior training or experience in suicide prevention or intervention is required. To learn more about the SPC and trainings visit https://www.rivcospc.org/
