Massachusetts Coalition for Suicide Prevention

The Massachusetts Coalition for Suicide Prevention (MCSP) is a broad-based public-private partnership dedicated to reducing the incidence of self-harm and suicide in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Founded in 1999, the organization operates as a non-profit that coordinates statewide efforts through a network of regional coalitions, providing education, advocacy, and community resources. MCSP works in close collaboration with the Massachusetts Department of Public Health to implement the state's strategic plan for suicide prevention and influence mental health policy. Their programs focus on workforce training, supporting survivors of suicide loss, and addressing the needs of high-risk populations through evidence-based prevention strategies.
