  • Education and Training
        • Education – Suicide is complicated and tragic, but it is often preventable. We can decrease suicide and suicide attempts by increasing student, staff, and faculty knowledge and adaptive attitudes about help-seeking and reducing the stigma of mental illness, as well as acknowledging the importance of seeking help or treatment. Knowing the warning signs, risk factors, and protective factors can help save lives.

At Risk Groups

The Ohio State University Suicide Prevention recognizes that some groups appear more vulnerable to suicide. This may be as a result of a complex set of factors, such as environmental stress, lack of access to resources, experiences of discrimination, prejudice or oppression, or complex bereavement in the case of suicide survivors (i.e., ‘those left behind’). We provide an overview of some of the concerns and pressures faced by these special student populations and links to specific resources:

First Generation Students
Athletes
International students
LGBTQIA+ Students
Men’s Mental Health Resources
Minority students
Students with disabilities
Survivors: those left behind
Veterans
