2018 Wingman Day

October 2018 Down Day:

Suicide Awareness & Prevention

Major General Mark E. Smith has shared how important he believes this topic to be, and the CAP Resiliency and Suicide Prevention Task Force has been assembled to bring these materials to you.

Please use them to conduct your October 2018 Down Day. If you have any questions, you can email Lt Col Thomas Janisko, CAP Chief of Health Services.

If someone needs help now call 911

If you need someone to talk to, call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255

If you need to text someone instead, text Hello to 741741
