A Lifeline for Agricultural Communities
Not only does the agriculture industry have some of the highest rates of fatalities and injuries across all age groups, but also some of the highest rates of suicide. Work and life in agricultural communities bring about unique stressors and situations, which increase barriers to accessing care.
This is why they need professionals who understand their particular issues. VIA LINK, the crisis call center for the AgriStress Helpline, is accredited by the American Association of Suicidology (AAS) and the Alliance of Information and Referral Systems (AIRS).
