Let’s PROSPER Together: Suicide Prevention, Intervention & PostventionÂ
Together we can create a world
with fewer suicides.Â
Transform Your Community
We Believe
At PROSPER, we believe in a future where every individual has the strength, support and resources to overcome life’s darkest moments.Â
United in our mission to prevent suicide globally, we collaborate with communities, educational institutions, policymakers, governments, faith leaders, first responders, and healthcare organizations to address and reduce systemic risk factors.
About Us
Our Approach
Through prevention, intervention, and postvention, we unite communities by leveraging their shared culture and values. Suicide prevention requires trust and empowerment, meeting people where they are, not where we expect them to be.
Our Mission
To reduce suicide risk in communities through strength-based, culturally consistent education, empowerment, and community engagement.
Our Communities
PROSPER is a global coalition spanning cultures and nations dedicated to reducing suicide risk through culturally responsive education and long-term community empowerment, fostering a world that values life and strengthens bonds.
