September is Suicide Prevention Month, and today, September 10, is World Suicide Prevention Day.  Governor Hochul yesterday announced that state bridges and landmarks would be lit in purple and teal - the colors of suicide prevention – on September 9 and tonight, September 10, to mark Suicide Prevention Month and Day in New York State.
