Who We Are
The SPTF functions as a multi-disciplinary collaborative, combining representatives from government, education, community-based service providers, and community members. Training, activities, and education are provided throughout our community to increase awareness of the signs, symptoms of suicide risk, prevention and early intervention best-practices.
What We Do

Communities need a coordinated system of services to effectively respond to crisis situations.
