Suicide Prevention Stakeholder Planning Session

Monday, June 23, 2025 - 9am - 3:30pm

Rio Salado College Conference Center, Tempe, AZ

* Virtual option available for those who are not able to travel to Tempe *

Building on insights from our May 13 virtual kickoff and the follow-up survey for stakeholders, this in-person summit will convene ADHS, county partners, community organizations, and lived-experience representatives to co-develop and refine Arizona’s suicide prevention strategies. Guided by expert facilitators and structured around survey feedback, this second event in a series of three, participants will:

• Explore which strategies they can champion or expand

• Identify opportunities for new or strengthened collaborations

• Pinpoint needed updates to the draft State Action Plan

• Prioritize next steps and resources for 2025’s Action Plan and the 2026–2030 Strategic Plan

A mix of plenary presentations, informal breakout conversations, and facilitated discussion will ensure every voice shapes the final plan.

Session Goals:

• Validate stakeholder roles in supporting each draft strategy

• Deepen collaboration across state, local, and community sectors

• Translate survey findings into concrete action steps

• Update and prioritize strategies based on collective input

• Set milestones and identify leads for finalizing the plan
