Suicide Awareness

Sadly, suicide calls are one of the most common that the Law Enforcement Chaplaincy Sacramento (LECS) deals with.  In the Community Training section of this website, we offer Suicide Awareness Training that can be extremely beneficial to law enforcement, clergy, teachers and parents.  Basically, this training can benefit everyone.

If you, or someone you know, is struggling with thoughts of suicide, please IMMEDIATELY call:

24-Hour National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (800)273-TALK (8255)

For those who have already had suicide touch their life, below are some special resources that might be very beneficial.
