The Samaritans of Rhode Island Suicide Prevention and Resource Center is a non-profit organization that has been providing support and resources to individuals affected by suicide since its establishment in 1981. They offer a range of programs and services, including a 24-hour crisis hotline, community engagement initiatives, grief support groups, and educational presentations. With a focus on nonjudgmental befriending and mutual understanding, the Samaritans create a safe and supportive environment for individuals to share their feelings and find hope in the aftermath of suicide. Safe Place, their original and continuously operating bereavement support group, provides a space for adults grieving the loss of a loved one to suicide to connect with others who have experienced similar loss. Facilitated by experienced Samaritan volunteers, Safe Place offers a non-threatening environment where participants can explore their emotions and find acceptance. Through their programs and resources, the Samaritans of Rhode Island strive to make a positive impact in the community by promoting suicide prevention, offering support to those in crisis, and fostering healing and resilience among survivors.Generated from the website
