The Office of Student Life’s Suicide Prevention Program will participate in World Suicide Prevention Day — or WSPD — Tuesday in an effort to raise on-campus awareness for suicide prevention. 

Students, faculty and staff can create a “culture of care” by adding stickers to campus food orders, requesting WSPD swag bags and/or ordering a delivery via a Food-Delivery Robot for the chance to get a free T-shirt, said Laura Lewis, assistant director of the Suicide Prevention Program in the Office of Student Life. The Buckeye Campaign Against Suicide, Ohio State’s psychology department and Ohio State Dining Services worked together to maximize outreach as much as possible, Lewis said.

“As I thought about what we could do that would kind of broaden the range of our messaging for students, staff and faculty, I was thinking about some of the major touch points that students, staff and faculty have on our campus,” Lewis said. “It jumped into my mind that food is a pretty big one. I thought, ‘Well, I wonder if we could work with dining services to do something that would reach everybody that orders food that day.’”
