School-Based Education
Raising Awareness of Personal Power (RAPP)

"Maybe if I use some of the strategies I learned today, I won't have to go to another funeral caused by suicide."
-RAPP high school student participant

"You really influenced a friend of mine. She was considering suicide, but after I told her what you said, she decided to reconsider her decision. Again, thanks, and I hope you influence other kids like you did my friend."
-RAPP junior high school participant

RAPP is a school-based suicide education and prevention program. RAPP teaches students signs of depression, suicidal warning signs, and how to help themselves or a friend. These interactive presentations are usually given as part of the health class curriculum. RAPP has been offered in the school system since 1996, and we currently speak with over 3000 students each year. The Suicide Resource Center provides this free service for middle schools and high schools in Larimer County.
