Creating a Safety Plan: A Tool for Hope in Hard Moments
When someone is experiencing suicidal thoughts or going through a mental health crisis, it can feel like hope is out of reach. In these moments, having a concrete, personalized plan can make all the difference. A safety plan is a written list of coping strategies, supportive contacts, and resources to use when things feel overwhelming. It is a simple tool that can provide structure, reassurance, and a path toward safety.
These plans are not just crisis tools. They are reminders that even in the darkest moments there are steps that can help you stay safe and connected.
