Every story we tell. Every laugh we share. Every meal. Every paddle, every dance, every weave and cut down the court. Our Native identities and cultures, the values and traditions we share, make us who we are. Our connection—is what makes us strong.
Our connection protects us, too. As good relatives, we care for the people in our families, communities, tribes and nations. And we make all of us stronger. That includes talking about mental health and suicide and getting support when we need it for ourselves and our friends and family.
Most people give some warning sign when they’re thinking about suicide. Learn the signs to watch for so you can get support for yourself or someone else.
When someone may be thinking about suicide, good relatives can help by being there for them. By talking. By listening. And by connecting them with people trained to help.
Native & Strong is designed to inform and educate tribal communities about suicide prevention. This campaign is funded by the Washington State Department of Health.
