This is a call to reverse the decision to end the LGBTQ line of 988. Please see the op ed James Black, CEO of @TrevorProject & I wrote conveying the importance of cultural competency when it comes to mental healthcare, especially for LGBTQ ppl.
"Culturally competent care improves access, engagement, and outcomes. When people feel seen, they are more likely to reach out...and return to health professionals," shares @cmoutierMD with @statnews.

Addressing social determinants/drivers of suicide is key. Check out our review which found several experiences that confer risk: justice involvement, exposure to another's suicide, firearm access & more. @PeterJNaMDMPH @MariaOquendoMD @YalePsych @YaleMed @JAMAPsych @afspnational
Viewpoint: Identifying and addressing key social determinants of health is crucial for informing clinical practices and public health policies to prevent suicide and reduce disparities among high-risk populations. ja.ma/4gx2bX1 @cmoutierMD
What an honor to be recognized for working for LGBTQ people to live with the same opportunities, safety and respect everyone deserves. It's not identity that increases suicide risk, it's the experience our society affords. TY @HIVPlusMag, @johntcaseyjr for the recognition.
Our very own Chief Medical Officer @cmoutierMD was named one of @HIVPlusMag's Health Heroes of the Year for her dedication to mental health equity and suicide prevention in vulnerable communities. Check out the issue here: hivplusmag.com/print-issue/h…

These words from my amazing colleague @josephinejessew are powerful: "When we love those in our life unconditionally, it opens up trust, communication, and the feeling of being safe." Such a simple yet life changing action we can all take. afsp.org/story/respect-and-l…

To reduce suicide, primary care & mental health clinicians need to work together. Congress can help by enacting policy that incentivizes Collaborative Care models in health systems. statnews.com/2024/06/24/suic…… via @statnews

Honored to speak at @sxsw about responsible reporting on suicide alongside @AshleyJudd, Dave Richards (@Audacy) and @rebecca_ruiz. Reporting that centers hope and resources can be lifesaving. Learn more⬇️#SXSW2024
At @sxsw, @AshleyJudd spoke about suicide and her family's experience after her mother and country music star Naomi Judd died almost two years ago. She spoke on a panel with our CMO @cmoutierMD, Dave Richards of @Audacy, and @rebecca_ruiz of @mashable. statesman.com/story/news/hea…
AI could be promising for suicide prevention, but it’s important for social media companies to get serious about protecting users’ mental health before it gets to a crisis point. Read about AI & suicide prevention in @Jamie_Ducharme’s @TIME article: time.com/6696703/ai-suicide-…

Do you know a child who has suffered from mental health issues?
FINALLY - here is a bill for a huge increase in @NIMHgov mental health research!
This can happen if we tell our Senators we demand it!

Dr Tia Dole @vibrantforall & I spoke with @_sammanzella of @SheKnows abt how we can better support women in our lives. Inviting someone who may be struggling to have an open conversation can be lifesaving. Take the risk for deeper connections.
