SAVE was one of the nation’s first organizations dedicated to the prevention of suicide. Our work is based on the foundation and belief that suicide is preventable and everyone has a role to play in preventing suicide. Through raising public awareness, educating communities, and equipping every person with the right tools, we know we can SAVE lives.
For over 30 years, SAVE has been the leading national organization working to prevent suicide through public awareness, education and as a resource for suicide survivors. SAVE developed the best practices for Media Reporting on Suicide, several award winning media campaigns, the only certification program for safe messaging and the National Media Award. SAVE developed an evidence based school-based program (LEADS); conducts training for professionals and communities globally, and thousands of SAVE’s best practice resources are distributed annually. SAVE’s Peer Connections is the only peer support program dedicated to suicide prevention and our work place prevention programs and partnership with Willis Towers Watson in the construction industry are the gold standard for companies.
SAVE was recognized as a Champion of Change by The White House, has received numerous awards and is one of fewer than 2,000 charities to have received the America’s Best Charities seal.

Accelerated Resolution Therapy
ART is officially recognized as an evidence-based treatment for psychological trauma and depression by the SAMHSA National Registry of Evidence-Based Programs and Practices (NREPP).
ART works to reprogram the way in which distressing images and memories are stored in the brain so that they no longer trigger strong physical and emotional reactions.
ART uses visualization techniques and attention on how the body is affected by distressing images or memories, enhanced through use of rapid eye movement (REM) similar to eye movements during dreaming.
SĀF-T Training
SĀF-T is a revolutionary way to help people relax their bodies and focus on alleviating negative sensations to produce a calming effect. It is a protocol for those whose objective is to move or eliminate negative sensations in the body associated with anxiety, physical discomfort, pain, and stress.
This training is available for professionals and practitioners, but is also appropriate for parents, teachers, paraprofessionals, coaches, day care providers, emergency service personnel, medical and dental staff, and anyone who regularly comes in contact with those experiencing emotional distress.
