Marin’s Strategic Plan for Suicide Prevention and Annual Reports

Marin County Board of Supervisors approved the County's first Suicide Prevention Strategic Plan in February 2020. This seven-strategy plan is our call to action to reduce deaths by suicide and suicide attempts in our community. At the heart of this plan is the knowledge that preventing suicide is achievable. Together, we are challenging our long held beliefs and perceptions about suicide and creating a new way to work across agencies and institutions to prevent suicide.  To learn more about the work we've accomplished in our first year, please read the newly released Annual Report: 2022-23.

NEW! Data Dashboard and the Suicide and Overdose Fatality Review

Marin County HHS recently released a  suicide prevention data dashboard for public access. Viewing the dashboard will allow a greater understanding of those disproportionately impacted by suicide. 

Data collected by the recent launch of the Suicide & Overdose Fatality Review Committee will also help inform real-time trends and determine who in the community is at risk for suicide and overdose. Learn more here.
