Testimonials

If we did not launch Hope Means Nevada when we did just before the pandemic, the outcomes that we are seeing now would be much worse.

Richard Egan
Nevada Coalition Office of Suicide Prevention

Our primary goal is to remind those struggling with their mental health that options exist and should be used. We want individuals to remember that anxiety can be managed, depression can be treated, and suicide is not the answer. Together, we can offer hope to all Nevadans.

Ciera Bellavance
Executive Director of Hope Means Nevada

The reduction in suicide is caused by groups like Hope Means Nevada and others out there improving the mental health system and individuals' lives when they need help.

We would not be where we are without Hope Means Nevada.

Did You Know?

In Nevada, there’s been an increase in suicide for youth – dropping from age 12 to just 8 years old.

Death by suicide ranked #12 on the leading causes of death within the United States in 2020.

It’s a state law in the United States to teach SEL – however the curriculum is not the same across states.

During 2020, there was an estimated 1.20 million death by suicide attempts in the United States.

Suicide rates vary for numerous factors in the United States such as: race/ethnicity, location, age, and more.

In 2020, suicide was ranked #9 on the leading causes of death in Nevada.

We understand that sometimes, our emotions can get the best of us. That’s why at Hope Means Nevada, we offer year-round, 24/7 support for you and your loved ones.
