The mission of Sources of Strength (SoS) is to prevent suicide by increasing help seeking behaviors and promoting connections between peers and caring adults. Sources of Strength is featured in CDC’s technical package for suicide prevention because it moves beyond a focus on risk factors, using a strengths-based approach for youth suicide prevention. The program emphasizes developing new skills and strengthening protective factors in middle- and high-school students, so that when they face challenges, they know which strengths they can rely on and who to contact for help. SoS is a school-based program designed to reach all students regardless of their risk.
