Suicide is a pervasive issue that impacts individuals across a broad age spectrum. In 2021, it was one of the top 9 causes of death for those aged 10-64. Alarmingly, it stood as the second most common cause of death for two significant age groups: 10-14 and 20-34. Every occurrence is a profound tragedy, leaving a permanent imprint of grief on families, friends, and communities.
At Hegira Health Inc., our dedication to preventing suicide is unwavering and is deeply rooted in the principles of the Zero Suicide model. Being a Zero Suicide initiative agency means we're committed to systematically reducing suicides through evidence-based strategies, offering a continuum of care that prioritizes safety and support for at-risk individuals. Our goal is unequivocal: zero suicides. To realize this goal, we provide a comprehensive range of suicide care services specifically designed to bolster safety and support for the individuals entrusted to our care.
As a CAMS-trained organization, we are grounded in a training model that blends a rich array of learning experiences, reinforcing the practitioner's adeptness in deploying CAMS across diverse clinical settings and populations.
We invite you to join us as an ally in our united stand against suicide.
