Nearly 800,000 people die from suicide each year. That’s one person every 40 seconds. For every adult who dies by suicide, it’s estimated that more than 20 others attempt it. It’s the second leading cause of death for youth in Missouri and Arkansas, and the 10th leading cause of death for adults. More than half of those who died by suicide did not have a known mental health condition.
