The mission of the Nathaniel B. Field Memorial Foundation, Inc. is to prevent suicide through public awareness and education, to reduce the stigma of mental illness, and to provide hope and support.
Did you know that in Connecticut, suicide is the second leading cause of death in 2018 for ages 15-34 (afsp.org). According to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention in 2017, 47,173 suicides were reported, making suicide the 10th leading cause of death for Americans. In that year, someone in our country died by suicide every 11.2 minutes.
Dying by suicide is an epidemic in this country! With your help, we want to spread our motto around like wildfire! “YOU’RE WORTH IT!” If the activities that we pursue, through your generous support, save even one life, then we will be proud of our efforts. Together, we can make a difference! Thank you! Marie and Howie Field
