The Truth
Every 40 seconds, someone in this world dies by suicide, leaving loved ones devastated and trying to make sense of the loss. In America, someone dies by suicide every 11 minutes. Suicide is the second leading cause of death for those aged 10-14 and 25-34 in the US. Every year in the United States, over 49,000 people lose their battle and die by suicide, and an estimated 1.6 million attempt. We can fill Chase Field with those lost to suicide every year. It is estimated to cost the United States over 500 billion dollars annually.
