​September is Suicide Awareness month, and this month we would like to make parents aware of the importance of locking up family firearms and ensure that their students do not have access to any firearms that could be used as a suicidal weapon. Suicidal crises are often brief and putting time and distance between a person in crisis and a firearm can save a life.
