DMH oversees and implements several evidence-based suicide prevention programs and initiatives, including the Missouri Suicide Prevention Network, an independent, non-partisan group of individuals and organizations that lead and coordinate statewide suicide prevention efforts. DMH is also leading statewide efforts to implement and enhance behavioral health crisis services that align with national best practices to ensure help is available for anyone, anywhere, and at any time.
