Certified Yellow Ribbon Program

---

The Yellow Ribbon Suicide Prevention Program®, a nationally recognized effort that equips individuals, schools, and families with tools to help prevent suicide and promote hope. The Yellow Ribbon cards are a small tool with a big impact. They give individuals a voice when they may not have the words. We encourage schools, youth organizations, and community groups to learn more about the program and consider offering Yellow Ribbon ‘Ask 4 Help’ cards in their spaces.

These signature Yellow Ribbon cards are available by request or can be ordered online through www.yellowribbon.org. By using these cards and the messaging behind them, local groups can help young people recognize it’s okay to ask for help—and that help is always available.
