The Napa County Suicide Prevention Council supports existing local suicide prevention and stigma reduction efforts.  We are working to identify and fill gaps in suicide prevention approaches across the County, as we develop an overarching Suicide Prevention plan that addresses the needs and input of our community.  We are in alignment with the State’s Suicide Prevention Strategic Plan, “Striving for Zero” suicides in Napa County.
