Mission: The CTSAB is a network of diverse advocates, educators and leaders concerned with addressing the problem of suicide with a focus on prevention, intervention, and health and wellness promotion.

Vision: The CTSAB seeks to eliminate suicide by instilling hope across the lifespan.  The CTSAB developed and is responsible for activating the state plan, leads the state campaign that promotes the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline and the CT Zero Suicide Initiative, and advises state agencies on the use of their suicide-related state and federal dollars from the Substance Abuse & Mental Health Services Administration, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and Health Resources & Services Administration.
