SUMMARY:SeptembreJaune.Org
DESCRIPTION:Septembre Jaune est un mois national de mobilisation consacré à la prévention du suicide\, porté par l’association Dites Je Suis Là. Parce qu’une seule journée ne suffit pas\, cette initiative prolonge la Journée mondiale de prévention du suicide du 10 septembre par des actions de sensibilisation\, d’information et de soutien tout au long du mois. \nEn 2026\, le Van de la Prévention du Suicide parcourra une partie de la France\, de Nantes à Paris\, avec des étapes organisées principalement au cœur des centres-villes afin d’aller à la rencontre du grand public. \nPorté par Dites Je Suis Là\, en partenariat avec les municipalités et les acteurs locaux\, ce dispositif itinérant incarne une volonté commune de sensibiliser\, d’informer et d’agir ensemble pour prévenir le suicide. Il bénéficie du soutien de l’Établissement Public de Santé Mentale de la Sarthe. \nTout au long de Septembre Jaune\, le public est invité à participer aux événements organisés\, à découvrir les ressources disponibles et à rejoindre gratuitement l’association afin de contribuer à cette mobilisation citoyenne. L’initiative met également en avant les dispositifs d’écoute et d’accompagnement existants\, afin que chacun sache comment réagir face à la détresse psychique\, pour soi-même ou pour un proche. \nEnsemble\, faisons de septembre un puissant élan de solidarité\, d’écoute et d’espoir\, et rappelons qu’un simple échange peut parfois sauver une vie. \nTranslation:\nYellow September is a national month of mobilisation dedicated to suicide prevention\, led by the association Dites Je Suis Là (“Say I Am Here”). Because a single day is not enough\, this initiative extends World Suicide Prevention Day on 10 September through awareness-raising\, information and support activities throughout the month. \nIn 2026\, the Suicide Prevention Van will travel through part of France\, from Nantes to Paris\, with stops organised mainly in the heart of city centres in order to reach the general public. \nLed by Dites Je Suis Là\, in partnership with local authorities and local organisations\, this travelling initiative embodies a shared commitment to raising awareness\, informing and acting together to prevent suicide. It is supported by the Sarthe Public Mental Health Establishment (Établissement Public de Santé Mentale de la Sarthe). \nThroughout Yellow September\, the public is invited to take part in the events organised\, to explore the resources available and to join the association free of charge in order to contribute to this citizen-led mobilisation. The initiative also highlights the existing listening and support services\, so that everyone knows how to respond to psychological distress\, whether their own or that of someone close to them. \nTogether\, let us make September a strong surge of solidarity\, listening and hope\, and remember that a simple conversation can sometimes save a life.

SUMMARY:Cossmedia Campaign for World Suicide Prevention Day
DESCRIPTION:How can we talk publicly about suicide without sensationalizing it or treating it as a taboo—while at the same time encouraging people to pay attention\, listen\, and offer support? \nWith this mandate\, a cross-media campaign was developed for World Suicide Prevention Day on September 10\, 2026. \nThe World Suicide Prevention Day campaign will be rolled out nationwide and launches under the guiding principle “Your story isn’t over.” \nPosters\, social media posts\, videos\, podcast episodes\, and materials for radio and print media were developed for the campaign. It will be distributed nationwide around World Suicide Prevention Day. Organizations\, regional networks\, media outlets\, local governments\, and other interested parties can use these materials for their own public outreach efforts.
