The Douglas Arapahoe Suicide Prevention Alliance is a coalition of organizations representing mental health providers, law enforcement agencies, schools, youth initiatives, fire rescue departments, hospitals, and faith communities.

DASPA’s mission is to implement comprehensive, community wide initiatives for preventing suicide in Douglas and Arapahoe Counties, Colorado.

“Aiming for Zero” is our commitment to eliminating suicides in Douglas and Arapahoe Counties. It reflects our understanding that regardless of the resources available, some people will choose death over life. We are none-the-less aiming for zero suicides each and every day.

METRO CRISIS SERVICES PRESENTS

Courage, Solutions and Live Theatre. A lunch time event unlike any other. Experience a day in the life of a crisis call center as actual callers’ stories are brought to life through interactive theatre.

Hope Matinee will feature a live theatrical performance – bringing to life the stories that MCS clinicians encounter every day in the call center.  For many in our community, it is hard to grasp the impact or “feel” what it is really like to be an individual in crisis, calling the Metro Crisis Line, or be a clinician responding to the call.  Because of the confidential and private nature of the work that MCS does, Hope Matinee will be our opportunity to make our work “real”, without jeopardizing the confidentiality that our callers value so much.
