Reducing loneliness is one of the most direct ways we can tackle mental health challenges related to suicidal thoughts, including depression, hopelessness, anxiety and substance abuse.

Forging Connection Against Loneliness When people feel connected, there is a rich foundation for them to be happier and lead more productive lives.

This and every day of the year, we stand in solidarity with the Black community. We are here for you and listening.

As a public health organization, we value the importance of culturally competent care because we recognize that Black people face disproportionate inequities in care and how systemic racism contributes to trauma, loss, social disparities, and more. Learn more about specific mental health support & resources for the Black community at afsp.org/bipoc.
