AFSP's mission is to save lives and bring hope to those affected by suicide. We fund research to improve interventions, train clinicians in suicide prevention, and advocate for policy that will save lives. We work to find better ways to reach those who suffer, and encourage schools, workplaces, and communities to make mental health a priority.

Military suicide has claimed more lives than we’ve lost in most major conflicts, including World War I, the Vietnam War, and the Global War on Terror. You can help save lives by investing in new suicide prevention research and crisis intervention for our most at-risk veterans and service members. join The Battalion, a community of individuals who give monthly to support our mission.
