Would you like to come forth and share anything? 00:23:23
Good morning. Thank you for having us here. I hope to be here every May for mental health month and every September for suicide 00:23:30
awareness until there are no more suicides, then maybe we'll stop visiting you. So I do have some team members that are amazing 00:23:36
here, certainly N Range team, part of our suicide education and support services. It is a prevention program. We do a ton of 00:23:42
trainings in the community. And then we also do have. 00:23:49
Representatives from Imagine 0, which is of local coalition. 00:23:56
Of many invested partners that come together with the intent of preventing anymore suicide. So I'm actually going to let them 00:24:00
speak because they are way better out of time. 00:24:04
Good morning. Thank you for having us. Really. I'll keep it brief, but I just want to take the opportunity to say thank you. Thank 00:24:12
you for caring and for supporting suicide prevention. We recognize that it's not always a fun topic to talk about, but we also 00:24:18
believe that suicide prevention is everybody's business. When we take the time to be vulnerable and checking on our people, we can 00:24:23
normalize mental health and we can make it OK to ask for help. So I want to encourage you to check in on your friends, your 00:24:29
families. 00:24:35
Neighbors and really I just want to say thank you for caring. It's the communities here that I see today that really do make me 00:24:41
optimistic for a brighter future with fewer suicides. 00:24:47
Do you mind sharing your name with us so that we, Yes, my name is Alyssa Selby. I'm the program coordinator for our SAS team. 00:24:53

Excellent. Commissioner James, did you everything you'd like to add this one? I do. I have said it before, I'll say it again. We 00:25:19
have a mental health epidemic in this nation and it's far more serious than any virus we've ever battled. It is perhaps the most 00:25:24
important public health matter that we deal with today. And we'll continue to advocate for that. And we'll continue to focus on 00:25:30
May so we don't have to focus on September. I agree with you. And so let's lean into that. 00:25:35
You who do your work in prevention and counseling, your angels and thank you for what you do. God bless you and may you continue 00:25:41
well in your work. Thanks, Mr. Button. 00:25:46
I couldn't agree more with Commissioner James. He just always has it so eloquently. But when you think of the number of of ones 00:25:51

of my heart. Thank you so much and and Godspeed. 00:26:03
Mr. Freeman yeah. You know, I think probably just about everybody who's been touched by somebody that has committed suicide, a 00:26:10
couple of people in my life, thank you. Thankfully years ago. But, you know, it's one of those things that you just don't see it 00:26:17
coming until it's till it's seven. So what you guys do is extremely important. Scott's right. Commissioner James Wright, mental 00:26:23
health is a huge issue in this country. So thank you for what you guys do every day. 00:26:29
Mr. C And I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart as well, Just it's a very special mission that you have and not one 00:26:36
that everybody can actually embark on and not let them. 00:26:41
Suck their daily lives as well. That's a very dark place for people go and and for you to be able to to sit in that rescue 00:26:46
mission, rappel down there and and and grab these folks before they do something irreparable to themselves and others in their 00:26:51
community. Just hats off to you. That's amazing. Thank you. 00:26:57
I would agree with all my fellow commissioners as I was reading the proclamation is, Commissioner Freeman stated. Most of us have 00:27:04
been. 00:27:08
You know, involved with somebody close to us, it's, it's committed suicide. And that's actually what's running through my head was 00:27:13
those, those friends and family members that I've lost by this. And I thank you for your guys''s work and the awareness to this. 00:27:21
People need to know that there's help, there's support out there. I appreciate you and, and Commissioner James, you're right. It's 00:27:28
