Who We Are
Deep Roots
Connect is a collaborative program established in 2004 through partnerships between The Suicide Prevention Partnership, The Irving and Barbara C. Gutin Charitable Foundation, and NAMI New Hampshire. Initially developed as the Frameworks Youth Suicide Prevention Project, Connect now focuses on a comprehensive approach to preventing and intervening in suicide across the lifespan.
The program draws on the recommendations of the National Strategy for Suicide Prevention and has become a leading model for both prevention and postvention, providing training and support across the U.S. and internationally. Through its work, Connect emphasizes the importance of connectedness in saving lives and is listed on the National Best Practice Registry of the Suicide Prevention Resource Center. Connect has been nationally recognized for its impact, including congressional testimony and awards for its work with the military.
