This organization was founded by a nationally known suicidologist who lost her own daughter to suicide in 1979. SAVE works to bring awareness to the fact suicide is a public health issue that should not be surrounded by stigma. In 2001, SAVE launched an initiative to use the media and mass marketing to educate the public about suicide prevention, depression, and the link between depression and suicide. SAVE creates customized training programs for professionals including clergy, teachers, and social service professionals, while working to disseminate school-based suicide prevention programs and educational events. Visitors to the website can find support groups, read personal stories, and find information on how to cope with loss and grief.

The center provides technical assistance, training, and materials to professionals serving people at risk for suicide. The SPRC is the only federally supported resource center in the nation that works to increase the knowledge and professional expertise of suicide prevention practitioners. The SPRC conducts workshops, webinars, and online courses in conjunction with organizational support from the National Action Alliance for Suicide Prevention.
