Nominations are available for the 2026 SPCC Awards

Nominations can be made by an individual or organization or a self-nomination. SPCC is looking to recognize those in our state
who are making a difference in suicide prevention.

• The SPCC Advocacy Award is a prestigious award that honors and recognizes those who work tirelessly with lawmakers to enact legislation that will help all Coloradoans reduce or
  prevent suicide and its impact in our state.

• The SPCC Media Award is an esteemed award given to those in the media who are cognizant and careful when reporting about suicide, and its impact on communities in Colorado. Careful reporting can be a useful tool in preventing suicide, and in educating the public.

Award nominations for the SPCC Advocacy Award, and the SPCC Media Award are being accepted until March 16, 2026.
