Samaritans’ mission is to reduce the incidence of suicide by alleviating despair, isolation, distress and suicidal feelings among individuals in our community, 24 hours a day; to educate the public about suicide prevention; and to reduce the stigma associated with suicide. We accomplish this through services that emphasize confidential, nonjudgmental, and compassionate listening. In FY2018: • Samaritans volunteers answered 74,588 calls, texts, and chats from people needing someone to listen; • We trained 10,907 people at 445 workshops to recognize warning signs of suicide and provide support; • There were nearly 1,200 visits to our Grief Support Services programs; and • You helped raise $939,680 for our programs and services through our fundraising events.
