Suicide Safety Plan is a free mobile application for suicide prevention.
iOS | Android | Website | Contact
This app is a mobile adaptation of a Suicide Safety Plan, which is a suicide prevention tool that is widely used in healthcare facilities around the world. Safety plans allow people who struggle with suicidal ideation to follow their plan during a crisis and stay safe.
As a suicide prevention project, we are aware that we have to hold ourselves to a higher standard than most other apps since our users are from a vulnerable population.
This project commits to:
-
Never charge money so that users who need it most will be able to access all features of this app free of charge without upfront costs, in app purchases or advertisements.
-
Never sell data so that users will be able to use the app in an anonymous manner without fear of being identified, tracked, or targeted.
-
Provide evidence-based content so that users can benefit from techniques with a high probability of effectiveness and positive impact.
We hope this project will foster collaboration between mental health professionals and open source developers.
