Media guides and safe messaging

How we talk about suicide, mental health, and traumatic events matters. When we follow safe messaging guidelines, we contribute to a hopeful narrative about triumph over adversity. We communicate that support is available. Safe messaging promotes resiliency, encourages help-seeking, publicizes prevention successes, and encourages actions to help prevent suicide.

When writing about suicide, mental health, or traumatic events follow safe messaging guidelines. Here are some of our favorite resources.

  • Safe reporting on suicide
  • Watch this webinar on safe messaging done as part of the Utah Suicide Prevention State Plan 2022–2026 webinar series.
  • A journalist’s guide for reporting on child abuse and neglect
