Chris Stewart on National Suicide Prevention Month

Published: Sept. 23, 2020, 5:50 p.m.

Representative Chris Stewart joins Boyd with an update on his three-digit National Suicide Hotline Designation Act which has passed in Congress and is now headed to the President’s desk. The three-digit number (988) would be a great step towards proving people struggling with suicidal thoughts and mental health issues the help they need. After all, September is National Suicide Prevention Month and we all need to do our part at raising awareness and breaking the taboo on speaking about these important issues. If you or someone you know is struggling with thoughts of suicide, KSL encourages you to call the suicide prevention hotline at 1-800-273-TALK. ‘Inside Sources with Boyd Matheson,’ Opinion Editor at Deseret News, takes you inside the latest political news and current events, providing higher ground for today's discussions.
