In Lebanon, on average, one person dies by suicide every 2.1 days and one person attempts suicide every 6 hours. Yet suicide remains a taboo subject, and stigma or shame keeps thousands of people from reaching out for support.
Our Mission is to:
- Break the silence. Raise awareness about suicide in Lebanon, so that more people feel able to ask for help and know where to find it.
- Protect dignity. Ensure that people experiencing suicidal thoughts are treated with respect, free of judgment or discrimination, and empowered to make their own choices about their psychological and psychosocial wellbeing.
- Listen and connect. Offer a safe, confidential space where anyone struggling with suicidal thoughts is heard with empathy and linked to community services for ongoing psychological or social-protection support.
- Stand with those left behind. Support people who have lost someone to suicide, as they cope with their grief, so they know they do not have to face this loss alone.
