September 10th is World Suicide Prevention Day, a time to help raise awareness and share information about this important public health concern. The Office of Employee Assistance (OEA) invites you to learn more about suicide and what we can all do to be more informed, to help lessen mental health stigma and to save lives. We have a very straightforward program you can engage in, it just requires that you TAKE 5 STEPS. We can do this together! 

If you or a member of your household needs support in battling mental health issues, please call (305) 348-2469 or email oea@fiu.edu to set up a free and confidential consultation. Help is within reach.
