Opening + Awareness – Let’s Talk About It!

Join us for the opening of National Suicide Prevention Awareness Week with an honest conversation on mental health in medicine—the challenges, the silence, and the reality we often overlook. Featuring insights from the WSL team and a special guest speaker, this session sets the stage for hope and awareness.
September 10 | 6:00 PM EST
Speak Your Heart: You Are NOT Alone
A safe space circle to share experiences, reduce isolation, and foster emotional connection.

Mental Health on the Move: Breathe. Feel. Release.

We invite all interested premed and medical students, to come together in raising awareness for this vital cause. We also encourage local chapters to organize their own events—such as distributing purple ribbons, hosting discussions, or creating unique activities. All AMSA chapters that participate and post will receive special recognition and incentives.
