What is MSPN?
The Missouri Suicide Prevention Network (MSPN) is a statewide network dedicated to reducing suicide through collaboration, education, and community-driven action. We bring together partners from across Missouri to strengthen prevention, intervention, and postvention efforts through our committees and workgroups.
Our work spans community coalition support, postvention planning, youth engagement in schools, public awareness initiatives, and data-informed strategies. MSPN also hosts statewide events, including our annual Race Against Suicide and the Missouri Suicide Prevention Conference, to raise awareness, amplify community voices, and support local prevention efforts.
Together, MSPN and our partners are building a stronger, more connected Missouri where every community has the tools and support needed to save lives.
RACE AGAINST SUICIDE
The Missouri Suicide Prevention Network is excited to bring back the Race Against Suicide on Saturday, September 26, 2026!
​
After a meaningful first year of community, connection, and support for suicide prevention, we are looking forward to growing this event in 2026. This year, participants can choose between a 5K and a new 10K option.
​
Registration and sponsorship opportunities are now open. Whether you plan to run, walk, sponsor, volunteer, or help spread the word, your support helps bring hope and suicide prevention awareness to communities across Missouri.
Join us as we take steps together toward hope, healing, and prevention.
