The Ohio suicide statistics are staggering; suicide is the 9th leading cause of death in Ohio among all age groups and is the 3rd leading cause of death among young people ages 15-24. Our local Tri-County Community, with a population of approximately 200,000 is no exception. In an effort to heighten awareness and provide education about suicide prevention, a Suicide Prevention Coalition was formed in January 2002 with representation from Darke, Miami and Shelby Counties. The Coalition operates as a sub-committee of the Tri-County Board and membership consists of survivors, teachers, licensed clinical personnel and Board members and staff from the Tri-County Board.

The Coalition organized with a common belief and concern that not enough was being done in our local tri-county communities to bring the tragedy of suicide, particularly youth suicide, to the forefront. In keeping with the mission of the Coalition to become a foundation in which local community partners can turn to for resources focusing on the prevention of suicide, the Coalition applied for and received funds from the Ohio Department of Mental Health and the Tri-County Board of Recovery & Mental Health Services for the purchase of educational and outreach materials including various booklets on suicide prevention and depression as well as a 5-day suicide prevention curriculum for tri-county area high schools. The materials are available at the Board Office for Mental Health Professionals, teachers, clergy, law enforcement and other community partners. In addition to providing outreach materials, the Coalition also strives to promote local resources and encourage individuals to seek help when faced with difficult times or thoughts of suicide. Future projects of the Coalition include suicide prevention training for teachers and gatekeepers for the elderly population
