Every year, during September — National Suicide Prevention Month — the construction industry dedicates a week to raising awareness about the unique challenges workers face in construction that may lead to suicide and what we can do to help prevent it.
Join the movement by registering your company at ConstructionSuicidePrevention.com and use the resources provided to plan activities with your workers during Suicide Prevention Week, September 8 – 12.
2025 THEME
While the factors that lead to suicide are complex, research shows that loneliness could put someone at a greater risk for suicidal behavior, according to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs via a paper published in 2022 and Dr. Thomas Joiner’s interpersonal theory of suicide. Employment is just one way in which people can form community, and this year’s Construction Suicide Prevention Week theme focuses on just that.
