Your Voice Can Help Save Lives
We know more than ever about what works in suicide prevention.
The challenge is getting that knowledge into the hands of those who can act on it.
Suicide, directly or indirectly, touches every community, and preventing it takes all of us. That's why we are inviting organizations and leaders to join the Alliance in Action Network, reaching new audiences with messages of hope.
Turning Knowledge Into Action
The National Action Alliance for Suicide Prevention (Action Alliance) is the public-private partnership for suicide prevention in the United States and a steward of the National Strategy for Suicide Prevention. The Action Alliance is turning today's most urgent and emerging suicide prevention research into a conversation the whole country can join.
We're launching Alliance in Action, a sustained national communications initiative committed to transforming trusted suicide prevention evidence into a shared national conversation, and knowledge into action.
This initiative will draw on the expertise of leading practitioners, researchers, organizations, and trusted voices to highlight best practices, inspiring case studies, compelling data, and emerging research. Throughout, the initiative will translate these insights into clear messages, sharable content, and actionable takeaways that we can amplify together.

Six-Month Cycles, Built for Momentum
Each cycle focuses on a key theme shaping the prevention field, moving from shared understanding to real-world application to community action.
Introduce connectedness and establish a common understanding, including leading research and data on why it matters and who may be most impacted.
Spotlight leading examples across a variety of community settings, from faith communities and schools to civic organizations, peer support networks, and beyond.
How first responders, 988, the Veterans Crisis Line, state models, and mobile crisis teams keep people held in connection during and after a crisis.
How emergency departments, mental health providers, and employers are weaving connectedness into care plans, follow-up, and workplace culture.
How media and technology influence both connection and isolation, including emerging research, platform-level initiatives, and the growing role of artificial intelligence (AI).
Synthesis of the cycle's key takeaways, remaining gaps, and a bridge to the next initiative theme, keeping momentum going.
