Suicide prevention contract

A suicide prevention contract is a promise that a person makes with someone they trust, like a doctor or therapist, to keep themselves safe if they're feeling really sad or thinking about hurting themselves. The contract is like a plan that helps the person stay safe and asks someone else to help them when they need it. This can include things like calling a friend, family member, or professional for help or going to a safe place where they can feel better. It's important to have a suicide prevention contract in place because it helps a person feel less alone and gives them the support they need to stay safe.
