About this submission

With work and life challenges magnified by COVID-19, the suicide risk has grown to one out of four Americans ages 18-24 (CDC June 2020). Isolation is not a good thing, and WFH can mask the struggles our peers and friends are experiencing at any age and stage. Particularly those who are marginalized or unseen. This under-1:30 video brings home some of the causes and expressions of these serious challenges -- and hope with the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1 800 273-8255. Watch it, pass it on, and reach beyond the surface to help them. And know that this project was motivated by the nearly-successful attempt of a former coworker to end his life in the last 60 days.
