Suspenders4Hope from the Start
How We Started
#WeSupportU started at Wichita State University in 2015 when WSU counseling services was awarded the SAMHSA Garrett Lee Smith Campus Suicide Prevention grant in order to develop a local suicide prevention program. From that grant, the #WeSupportU Suspenders4Hope™ campaign and Preventing Suicide Training was born. This was WSU’s promise to support their students’ mental well-being. Now, you can help support your community or organization with the #WeSupportU Suspenders4Hope™ comprehensive prevention approach. We continue to be affiliated with the University and as a non-profit, we are committed to developing quality, engaging, evidence-based content at an affordable price for anyone interested in supporting community mental health and preventing suicide.
