World Suicide Prevention Day

Every life matters.

The Ateneo Law Student Council joins the commemoration of World Suicide Prevention Day to raise awareness around the globe that suicide can and should be prevented and to combat the stigma it has among individuals regardless of age and gender.

The call to prevent suicide is not mutually exclusive with our advocacy to protect our mental health. At a time when our health and political crises continue to worsen, we must continue to provide as much care to the members of our community. We must cultivate a community that provides a safe space.

The Ateneo Law Student Council, in partnership with Empath, provides free mental health counseling for ALS students. This platform enables students to book a one-on-one session with a counselor that has their best interest in mind and is an expert in helping people in dealing with their mental health-related problems.

Reach out. Listen. Stay Connected.

Together, let's join hands and help reduce the stigma of suicide. Let us share our mental space and help others when we can. #WorldSuicidePreventionDay#MoveForMentalHealth
