Michigan Suicide Prevention Commission Initial Report 2022
For the first time in two decades, we witnessed a slight decline in our annual suicide rates despite one of the most difficult pandemics ever to hit the nation. Nonetheless, our suicide rates remain 25% higher than in 2000, and we remain concerned that the long-term impact of COVID-19 may continue to take a toll on our fellow citizens, particularly for marginalized populations who remain heavily impacted by job loss, social isolation, and other acute and chronic stressors that increase mental health risk. In this year’s detailed Suicide Prevention Commission Report, we provide the most up-to-date statistics available to help guide the State in prioritized suicide prevention moving forward.
