Silver Anniversary for MASP

I would like to invite all of you to help MASP celebrate our Silver Anniversary. MASP has been around twenty-five years and its mission has evolved to meet the needs of the survivor community and work to reduce the number of suicides and attempts in Michigan. This special event is being hosted by MASP at Don and Judi Davis’s home. Judi is a long standing member of MASP and past-president.

Our association was the first state-wide organization to take on suicide and its impact on families and communities. In 2001, MASP attended a pre-conference in Midland, Michigan that started the Michigan Suicide Coalition. This coalition drafted and started to implement our state suicide prevention plan in 2005. After four years, we are now in the process of merging our two organizations into one. We believe this will focus our efforts to assist in implementation of the plan.

Again, we are excited about the opportunities this New Year and decade presents. MASP is still as relevant today as it was in the beginning in addressing suicide prevention in Michigan.

Stay safe, stay connected
