We want to reach every Tennessean, in every county, and the only way to do so is together.
Our Mission
The Tennessee Suicide Prevention Network (TSPN) is a statewide organization working tirelessly to eliminate the stigma of suicide. Implementing the Tennessee Strategy for Suicide Prevention as defined by the 2001 National Strategy for Suicide Prevention, our efforts date back twenty years.
Through education efforts and events, our goal is to expose as many people as we can to the facts and numbers of suicide – and to debunk the myths. We offer different trainings specialized for business, schools and organizations alike to detect warning and risk factors of suicide. These are FREE sessions and you have the autonomy to choose which one you think will best suit your audience.
Access to care
Getting appropriate treatment for mental health conditions is a critical strategy for suicide prevention.
Is YOUR health plan following the law when it comes to covering mental health treatment?
Join us for a series of webinars that will outline:
- Your rights for coverage
- Laws that protect you
- How to appeal a health plan decision
- How to file a complaint
These webinars are beneficial for anyone with mental health needs and behavioral health professionals who help get them needed care.

Volunteer your energy, talents and resources to bring inspiration and hope to those who need it.
