This year, suicide reentered the top 10 leading causes of death in the United States. And although it can be a difficult topic to discuss, speaking openly about suicide risk can be the first step toward reducing stigma and connecting people to the help they need.

In this episode, we'll hear about who may be most at risk, including student athletes, and how tailored prevention programs can offer hope and support. And we'll learn about how mental health resources at the University of Washington helped members of the women's soccer team support each other through grief and loss.
