Centerstone announced that it has received an $800,000 federal grant to fund a program aimed at preventing suicide in Indiana during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The grant, awarded by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, will allow the not-for-profit health system to support communities in advancing suicide prevention efforts among adults age 25 and older, with an added focus on victims of domestic violence, the organization said in a statement.
