About Us

Mission

Save lives.

We save lives by bringing the tools, training, and experience necessary to empower individuals and communities to see, speak, and step in for each other.

VISION

We envision communities and workforces

where people may face crisis —

but never face it alone.

Values

Family: Family is more than bloodline. Family is community — friends, crews, shifts, teams, tribes, and neighbors who keep each other going. We are all family.

Courage: Courage isn’t the absence of fear. Courage is carrying fear and moving forward anyway — for ourselves and for our families.

Duty: Courage and family mean nothing without duty. Duty is our responsibility to look out for each other, step in when someone needs help, and act when action matters most.

We are Each Others Keepers.™

What We Do

Provide suicide intervention training focused on peer-to-peer response

Most suicide crises unfold in the presence of coworkers, friends, or family — not clinicians.

We train people who are already there to recognize warning signs, slow escalation, and intervene safely until additional help can be reached.

Prioritize rural, industrial, and high-risk demographics

Provide suicide intervention training focused on peer-to-peer response

Rural and industrial communities often face higher suicide risk, longer response times, and fewer local resources.

Our current focus is regional — serving communities where distance, isolation, and high-risk work environments make early intervention critical.

Build long-term safety coverage rather than one-time awareness

Build long-term safety coverage rather than one-time awareness

Suicide intervention is not a one-to-one outcome.

Each trained individual increases safety coverage for an estimated seven others through shared shifts, crews, families, and peer networks — multiplying impact beyond the individual.

We Are Not

We are not a crisis hotline

We do not promise prevention — we build capacity to intervene

We are not a replacement for mental health professionals

We do not provide emergency or real-time crisis response.

If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call or text 988 or your local emergency number.

We are not a replacement for mental health professionals

We do not promise prevention — we build capacity to intervene

We are not a replacement for mental health professionals

Suicide intervention training is not therapy or clinical care.

Our role is to help people recognize risk, respond appropriately, and connect individuals to professional resources when needed.

We do not promise prevention — we build capacity to intervene

Suicide cannot always be prevented.

What can be strengthened is the ability of people to notice warning signs sooner, delay irreversible decisions, and support safer outcomes during moments of crisis.
