Helplines for youth suicide prevention

Crisis Lines around the world with a shared statement

Every year, we have the opportunity to create a global movement that drives real change to prevent suicide.
This year, IFOTES has joined forces with international helpline partners to release a statement on the need to address rising youth suicide rates. Together, we call on governments and donors to:

  • Invest in crisis helplines and child support services now
  • Raise awareness to reduce shame and stigma 
  • Remove barriers to seeking help

Stand with us! Download the full statement and help spread the word.
