Suicide Prevention Committee
Each year, San Mateo County Behavioral Health and Recovery Services’ Office of Diversity and Equity (BHRS’ ODE) and Star-Vista partners with local agencies, clients/consumers and family members, and community members to form the Suicide Prevention Month Committee. The committee advises on priorities and collaborates to host events.
Thank you to our many partners who helped make Suicide Prevention Month happen this year!
