About LivingWorks

For four decades, we’ve wondered: how can we make the world a better place? At LivingWorks, that comes in the form of
saving lives from suicide. We make it possible with innovative, evidence-based training that can empower anyone to
recognize someone’s distress and take action to keep them safe. Everyone has a role to play, and we have a training program
for every role.

We’ve grown a lot over the past four decades. From a small startup to a global company, we’re honored to be training
communities and organizations around the world. Military units, teachers, corporations, volunteers, faith communities,
mental health professionals, and countless others rely on our training to save lives every day.

LivingWorks is a mission-driven, for-profit company. This means:

• We exist for our mission: to make communities everywhere safer from suicide.
• Everything we do, and how we do it, must contribute to our mission.
• Profit is an ‘outcome’ of what we do, not the ‘why’ of what we do.
• Profit ensures the sustainability of our organization to serve our mission.
