You can find one of their 74 Chapters, including those in Washington DC and Puerto Rico, by visiting www.afsp.org/chapters
The funds raised by AFSP help support critical research, promote advocacy at both state and federal levels, provide free resources throughout our communities, offer training to schools, workplaces, organizations, and community groups, and support individuals impacted by suicide.
*15% of the proceeds of this candle will be donated to further suicide prevention programs.
