Illinois bill would expand 988 suicide lifeline signage and suicide prevention education in schools and prisons.
A new Illinois bill, Senate Bill 2771, has passed a key committee and would require 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline signage in public spaces like schools, hospitals, and shelters.
It mandates suicide prevention education in grades 6–12 and requires the state Department of Corrections to provide resources to people leaving prison.
The bill aims to address Illinois’s high suicide rate, which exceeds 1,500 deaths annually, and now moves to the full Senate for consideration.
