Yellow Ribbon Suicide
|
Welcome to Community for Hope of Greater Oshkosh, a nonprofit organization supporting suicide prevention, intervention and response. Our group was established in 2001 in response to a growing number of teen suicides in Oshkosh and the clear need for action to stem this alarming trend. While our initial focus was on teen suicide, our current focus includes all age groups. |

The
Community for Hope of Greater Oshkosh is pleased to announce the winners
of their annual yellow Ribbon Campaign art contest.
Over 140 entrants from Oshkosh area schools designed art work
around the theme, It’s OK to Ask for Help.
Winners were chosen in three categories, and their entry will be
used on folders distributed to all students in the Oshkosh area schools.
One winner was chosen to have the art work displayed on a t-shirt
given to all entrants. The art contest has been sponsored by Community for Hope, a nonprofit suicide prevention agency in Oshkosh, for the past eight years. Each entry demonstrated how the youth have a lot to say about this issue and can make a difference in suicide prevention.
