September is suicide prevention month. We wanted to share this article from Adoptive Families Magazine.  If you — or someone you know — need help, please call 1-800-273-8255 for the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline. If you are outside of the U.S., please visit the International Association for Suicide Prevention for a database of international resources.
