An unidentified community presenter urged Peachtree City residents to strengthen local suicide-prevention efforts, saying intervention can save lives and that the community must act together.

The speaker said the city is "22% higher than the state average" on suicide with one month left in the year and called for improved local efforts. The presenter also described having conducted "more than 2,000 successful suicide interventions since 2012," adding, "Everyone that we've worked with is still alive today or died of natural causes, but not suicide." These figures were presented by the speaker and were not independently verified in the presentation.

"Intervention saves lives," the speaker said, urging residents to build "a network of care in our community where fewer and fewer people feel all alone and hopeless." They recommended that people who care for someone at risk ask directly: "I'm just wondering, are you having thoughts of suicide?" and said that asking can prompt an honest response.

The presenter encouraged anyone unsure how to help to call 988, describing it as "a resource that's available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week." 988 is the national Suicide & Crisis Lifeline for calls and texts to connect people in crisis with trained counselors.

The talk closed with an appeal for community involvement: "I wanna see our community being the strongest community in the state of Georgia, if not the whole nation," the speaker said, and asked listeners to "join us in the mission to make our community stronger."
