Dave Nee Foundation

A principal reason for the high suicide rate in the United States is a glaring lack of sufficiently candid discussion about, and early treatment of, depression. We hope to spread the message that depression and thoughts of harming oneself are common and that treatment for depressed and suicidal thoughts must become socially acceptable. We believe that friends, colleagues, and family members should know how and when they can intervene if they think a friend, colleague or family member might be struggling with depression, substance use and/or suicidal thoughts.
