Strategic Plan
Below is our strategic plan overview and information regarding our education and training, outreach and engagement, and finance and governance work.
Education and Training
We believe suicide prevention should be embedded into apprenticeship programs, routine onboarding, and ongoing safety programs. By fully integrating suicide prevention into existing construction employment education and training programs we can effectively engage with our diverse workforce. Our deliverables include:
Outreach and Engagement
We are focused on expanding participation from within the construction industry. The goal is to broaden CSPPs’ engagement strategy with efficient communication through c-suite and labor leaders and build public engagement.
