In this edition of CAHS Connects, we address the issue of suicide, which has become pervasive in America and does not discriminate by age, race, gender, or class. Click here to read the news.

Capital Area Human Services (CAHS) is working to help reverse this trend through education, prevention, intervention and other resources, says Interim Executive Director Jan Laughinghouse, PhD, LCSW-BACS.

“We can help you or someone you know who is struggling with thoughts of suicide,” says Dr. Laughinghouse. “We can screen for depression and thoughts of suicide with a self- assessment given through our main clinic, satellite clinics, and mobile services units.”
