Source of Strength
Source of Strength
Sources of Strength is an evidence-based program that involves peer leaders to enhance protective factors associated with reducing suicide at the school population level by engaging youth as peer leaders and school staff as adult allies. OMHSAS has provided this program for free for PA schools through a grant where Youth Move provides the training and a stipend for messaging campaign materials and training.
