This 2009 report, issued jointly by Mental Health America of Colorado and The Colorado Trust, serves both to update the state’s 1998 Suicide Prevention and Intervention Plan to address Colorado’s historically high suicide rate, as well as The Trust’s 2002 report Suicide in Colorado, which documented the problem of suicide across the state and identified suicide prevention resources. This report details key facts and figures about the suicide rate in Colorado, notable prevention achievements in the past 10 years, and recommendations to strengthen current and future suicide prevention and awareness efforts.
