Pierce County Roofers and Roofers Local 153 joined thousands nationwide for Suicide Prevention in Construction Week 2025, emphasizing that mental health is just as vital to jobsite safety as hardhats and harnesses.

Every year, during September — National Suicide Prevention Month — the construction industry will dedicate a week to raising awareness about the unique challenges workers face in construction that lead to suicide and what we can do to prevent it. Together, we can save lives.

For a limited time, the Pierce County Roofers Apprenticeship has support services for registered apprentices encountering hardships or barriers affecting their employment. Contact Us by June 30, 2023, to be eligible.

Observing National Safety Month is about working together to highlight leading causes of preventable injury and death so people can live their fullest lives.
