Suicide Coalition

Meeting Information
Meet Our Members

Allegany County Suicide Prevention Coalition

The Allegany County Suicide Prevention Coalition (ACSPC) was first initiated in 2012 as a rural model for effective, successful programming and  professional and community-based trainings and resources to build a Rural Suicide Safety-Net. 

​Utilizing evidenced-based programs the ACSPC is working to enhance suicide awareness, risk factors, warning signs, improve strategies to keep at-risk individuals safe during a crisis, and shape our communities' response to a death by suicide.  
Picture
Who We Are 
The ACSPC is a group of committed citizens including; but not limited to both public and private representatives, suicide survivors, and community members at-large; working to prevent suicide and promote individual and community healing.  Our Vision:  Is that all people know that they are valued, priceless, and therefore empowered to live. 
 
Our Mission 
We are committed to embracing life by being a resource for suicide prevention, intervention and postvention.

Our Goals
  1. Increase public awareness that suicide is a public health problem, suicide is preventable, and help is available.
  2. Increase the number of Allegany County School Districts and youth-serving organizations that implement effective youth suicide prevention.  
  3. Support initiatives that decrease risk factors for individuals susceptible to suicide by reducing access to lethal means and establishing county-wide suicide safety planning protocols.  
  4. Sponsor and support suicide awareness trainings, workshops, and conferences that increase recognition of sucide warning signs and appropriate responses to suicidal thoughts, survivors of suicide loss, and survivors of suicide attempts. 
  5. Develop effective clinical and professional practices that promote early identification and treatment of suicdel risk factors and promote protective factors.
  6. Provide resource information and assistance in situations where contagion appears to be a factor for communities and groups.
  7. Partner with organizations and other coalitions that promote community protective factors and decrease risk factors that impact community and individual mental wellness.
