Module 4: Implementation Strategies for Rural Suicide Prevention Programs

Each rural community and program designed to prevent suicide is unique, and there is no one-size-fits-all implementation strategy. Successful programs identify existing resources and best practices and tailor them to address their community's needs. This module identifies key concepts to consider when implementing a program to prevent suicide in rural areas.

For a broad overview of rural program implementation, see Implementing a Rural Community Health Program in the Rural Community Health Toolkit.
