Suicide Prevention Week serves as a crucial opportunity to highlight the significance of promoting better mental health care. Although often viewed as taboo, mental health is extremely important for workers in the construction industry, where suicide rates exceed those of the general U.S. population by more than four times. By increasing awareness and offering support, we can all help reach those in need and save lives. #BuildingTogether
