Mission Statement

AFSP is the nation's leading non-profit aimed at creating a world without suicide. The RI Chapter carries out that mission in the Ocean State.

Description

The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) is the nation’s leading organization bringing together people across communities and backgrounds to understand and prevent suicide, and to help heal the pain it causes. Individuals, families, and communities who have been personally touched by suicide are the moving force behind everything we do.

We strive for a world that is free of suicide.

We support research, because understanding the causes of suicide is vital to saving lives.

We educate others in order to foster understanding and inspire action.

We offer a caring community to those who have lost someone they love to suicide, or who are struggling with thoughts of suicide themselves.

We advocate to ensure that federal, state, and local governments do all they can to prevent suicide, and to support and care for those at risk.
