Did you know?


The YSCF Provides Fiscal Sponsorships for Local Organizations


Thoughtfully submitted by GCSPC Co-Leader Kathryn Hitchcock


The Greene County Suicide Prevention Coalition is happy to have the Yellow Springs Community Foundation as our fiscal sponsor! 
 
While we are not a 501c3 nonprofit, we are a coalition of volunteers committed to reduce suicide deaths in Yellow Springs/Miami Township and across Greene County.
 
Our treasurer, Florence Randolph, signed the papers that will allow us to accept donations and apply for grants to further our mission: To provide cross-sector community leadership in planning, developing, educating, and implementing suicide prevention strategies utilizing evidence-based practices.
 
Currently, we are working to build capacity. We are also working with You Thrive, a prevention focused consulting group, to help increase our ability to fulfill our mission. And we are launching a LOSS Team for suicide survivors—Local Outreach to Suicide Survivors. The LOSS Team at this time seeks weighted blankets, which have proven very helpful to suicide survivors.  
 
Overall, our main effort is to provide resources, and support in the midst of trauma often means listening and sitting with those in need. 
 
This work is becoming increasingly important for individuals in our community, and we will be looking for suicide survivors who wish to assist others, as well as lay people to back them up. 
 
Stop by our booth and talk with us at the YS Street Fair in October—we look forward to seeing you!
