The Galveston County Suicide Prevention Coalition (GCSPC) aims to increase communication, coordination, and

collaboration efforts in Galveston County to prevent suicide and bring hope and support to those affected by suicide. We bring organizations together with the end goal of enhancing the overall success of our collective suicide prevention efforts. These efforts include increasing awareness of available support and resources, promoting suicide prevention education and training, identifying unique community needs and working toward solutions.

Our monthly Coalition member meetings are to keep one another connected and informed of local resources, upcoming trainings and events, and opportunities for suicide prevention engagement in our region. Generally our meetings start with a brief presentation by a local resource representative, then end with general announcements, project or resource updates, and discussion.
