Hosted by the Urban Indian Coalition of Arizona and the Phoenix Indian Center, the Suicide Prevention Convening is a safe space for local organizers to help establish suicide-safer communities for Urban American Indian families. 

Please join us on Friday, March 07, 2025 as we plan to have a community discussion about suicide prevention through an American Indian culturally respective lens to benefit our communities as well as highlight prevention efforts in Maricopa County & Arizona. The SPC hopes to incorporate traditional and contemporary Indigenous knowledge to bring together behavioral health staff, service providers, school support staff, youth service organizations, and community members to discuss and strategize how to reduce deaths by suicide among urban American Indian youth and adults.
