Strategic Partnerships The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention has recently formed strategic partnerships with organizations such as Franciscan Health, American Legion Post 129, and Ursinus College. Leveraging these partnerships can create opportunities for joint initiatives, co-hosted events, and shared resources to promote suicide prevention efforts.
Research Investment AFSP's investment of $1.5 million into Sma Ohsu for exploring innovative approaches to identifying blood-based biomarkers related to suicide risk demonstrates a commitment to cutting-edge research. Collaborating with research institutions or companies in the field of mental health research could be a potential avenue for partnership or funding opportunities.
Community Engagement Through programs, events, and initiatives at local chapters in all 50 states, AFSP actively engages with communities to raise awareness about mental health and suicide prevention. Targeting community events or participating in local activities can help in building relationships with individuals and organizations supporting similar causes.
Educational Resources The launch of new guides in AFSP's signature #RealConvo Guides series indicates a focus on providing educational resources. Collaborating on educational workshops or webinars related to mental health awareness and suicide prevention could open avenues for engaging with audiences interested in mental health advocacy.
Fundraising Opportunities With a revenue range of $10M - $50M, AFSP may be open to fundraising opportunities or partnerships that support their mission. Collaborating on fundraising campaigns, sponsoring events, or offering donation-matching programs could be potential avenues for engagement and demonstrating corporate social responsibility.
