THE NEED 

Suicide has become an Epidemic: The US suicide rate has jumped some 30% from 2000 to 2016, according to the Centers for Disease Control. The reasons are complex: Family fragmentation, social media overexposure, political polarization, opioids, and other life stressors all play a part. Stay Alive was developed in recognition of the challenges of traditional institutions in addressing all those in need of suicide prevention and care. 

THE DOCUMENTARY 

Stay Alive is a 75-minute video/podcast documentary serving at-risk populations. It’s two sections – Understanding and Helping, deliver messages of Education, 

compassion and caring for those who are in deep despair, along with Guidance for their families
