Suicide represents a pressing public health crisis in the United States, with profound economic and societal implications.

This paper evaluates the financial and social costs of suicide and presents evidence supporting the efficacy of Vita Health’s innovative suicide prevention program, which leverages personalized care and evidence-based interventions to reduce suicide risk and improve mental health outcomes.
