According to the Colorado Health Institute, Colorado continues to have one of the highest suicide rates in the country with a record 1,175 deaths due to suicide in 2017. The Colorado School of Mines’ chapter of Alpha Phi Omega (APO) believes that when it comes to mental health and suicide prevention “Silence Isn’t Golden”. APO has organized a week of events aimed at uniting the Golden community in conversation to work towards overcoming mental health stigmas and stopping suicide. The week will culminate with a community-wide suicide prevention awareness and remembrance walk followed by a mental health wellness fair.
Events are scheduled throughout the week of November 4-10 in support of Alpha Phi Omega’s National Service Week 2018 “Suicide Prevention in the Community”. APO has designated the first week of November as National Service Week (NSW), in order to unify chapters with a national theme, inspire expansion of their service programs and increase the impact they have on the communities they serve.
