The BHDD Suicide Prevention Program strives to make South Carolina a Zero Suicide state. We do so through training, awareness, and collaboration with other state agencies, nonprofits, communities, and medical and behavioral health care systems. We operate under the firm belief that suicide is preventable, especially when communities are equipped with the knowledge and ability to help individuals struggling with thoughts of suicide. The Suicide Prevention Program is dedicated to suicide prevention, intervention, and postvention efforts across South Carolina.
