How Can You Help At-Risk LGBTQ+ Young People?

If you recognize some of the warning signs of suicide in someone you know, or feel that someone you know is at risk for suicide, there are steps you can take to help. When you CARE (Connect, Accept, Respond, Empower), you can potentially save a life. Remember, you are not responsible for anyone who chooses to take their own life.
