Student & Family Resources

About Us

Live On is a statewide effort to prevent suicide by promoting education, providing resources, and changing our culture around suicide and mental health. Together we can get through, reach out, lift up, look ahead, and Live On.

Dr. Greg Hudnall, founder of Hope 4 Utah, is a leading expert in suicide prevention, intervention, and postvention. He provided a presentation to parents on contributing factors, warning signs, and prevention of suicide. You can access a recording of this presentation below by clicking on the image and using this passcode (case sensitive): Y3P&WLEn

Whether they've experienced trauma directly or observed it on media, parents may want to consider these tips for talking with their kids about trauma.

Parent Guidance is a resource for parents that provides education and therapeutic support to empower and give you hope as you support your child’s mental health.
