"Each year, a month is set aside to end the stigma surrounding mental health disorders, raise awareness about suicide prevention, and devise meaningful solutions to this prevalent tragedy.

Together we can help our fellow man and build a future in which no Texan has to bear life's burdens alone." Governor Greg Abbott
