Mental Health Resources

These resources are intended to provide tools for you. Here are a few tips to help you optimize these resources: first, look through these web sites and explore one that provides useful information. Second, try to get printouts of any pages or resources that you find helpful. Next, take your print-outs to a counselor at the CSS and review them together. Counselors are trained to help maximize your efforts and help you achieve your personal goals.

Suicide Prevention Resources - How to help?

The following links provide some very good information about preventing suicide, warning signs and how to access help, but no web search can be a substitute for getting help from a caring trained professional. This is true whether you are considering suicide or are concerned about someone who may be. The CSS counselors are available to consult with all students, and faculty/staff regarding students, at Everett Community College to help consider the best ways to assist someone who is distressed, given the uniqueness of each person and their circumstances.

That said, here are some websites we trust to provide thorough and accurate guidance to those concerned about suicidal feelings and behaviors.
