Construction is an industry at high risk for suicide. CSPP is changing that through embedding mental wellness into everyday safety practices and connecting workers to support, like our Construction CareLine. This work wouldn’t be possible without you.

Thanksgiving brings up different feelings for everyone. For some, it’s connection. For others, it’s stress, loneliness, or a reminder of painful histories — especially for Native and Indigenous communities.

If you need support, call or text 988 24/7. You aren’t alone.
