To Write Love on Her Arms Shares World Suicide Prevention Day Video ImageThe nonprofit To Write Love on Her Arms has shared an inspiring new video as part of its "#TomorrowNeedsYou" campaign to honor National Suicide Prevention Week (9/9 - 9/15) and World Suicide Prevention Day (9/10).The video features actors Chris Sullivan (from This Is Us) and Jaina Lee Ortiz (from Station 19), country music star Hunter Hayes, writer/artist Morgan Harper Nichols, and singer/songwriter Matt Wertz, along with a number of clips submitted by TWLOHA supporters from around the world. To watch the video, please visit: youtu.be/aEzUMnBHHK0.

On the video, TWLOHA founder Jamie Tworkowski shares: "We love that this new video is a mix of people from all over-actors, artists, parents, nurses, students, and musicians all using their voices to tell the world why tomorrow needs them. Our hope is to encourage each viewer to believe that life is worth living. Our hope is to prevent suicide."

According to the World Health Organization, 800,000 people die by suicide globally each year. That's one person every 90 seconds. Additionally, the CDC recently reported that as of 2016, the suicide rate in the United States has risen 25% in the last 20 years.

People can participate in this year's campaign by joining the conversation on Twitter and Instagram with #TomorrowNeedsYou and #WSPD18, and donating to the fundraising campaign. TWLOHA will directly invest every dollar from the "Tomorrow Needs You" campaign into treatment and recovery.

To Write Love on Her Arms is a nonprofit dedicated to presenting hope and finding help for people struggling with depression, addiction, self-injury, and suicide. It exists to encourage, inform, inspire, and also to invest directly into treatment and recovery. Since its start in 2006, TWLOHA has donated over $2.1 million directly into treatment and recovery and answered over 200,000 messages from over 100 countries.
