Suicide awareness day is this week

The Counseling and Health Center notes that Wednesday (Sept. 10) is World Suicide Prevention Day. They remind us that if you become aware that someone in the University community is contemplating suicide, please take action. If a suicide attempt seems imminent, call 911. If there is a concern but not an imminent danger you can call the Counseling and Health Center at 465-2380 during regular business hours for consultation. The Counseling and Health Center will reach out to students to provide assistance and also can meet with employees to help connect them with additional resources. The Brown County Crisis Center at 920-436-8888 is also available, around the clock, to help with consultation, suicide risk assessment, short-term counseling and referral.
