A report recently released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) showed that rates of death by suicide in the United States have risen by roughly 25 percent in the last couple decades and it is now the second leading cause of death for people ages 15 to 24 in the U.S. The S Word is a groundbreaking documentary that shatters the silence around suicide and reveals a movement of survivors from a cross-section of America fighting to change how we deal with our ultimate taboo. If you are not familiar with the film, I invite you to watch the trailer: https://vimeo.com/189549300.
