Send Silence Packing Send Silence Packing
Send Silence Packing
Send Silence Packing is a traveling educational display of 1,100 backpacks that represent the number of U.S. college students that die by suicide every year. These backpacks have been donated in memory of loved ones. We are so honored to once again bring this display to the University of Michigan. This event will commemorate individuals lost to suicide, as well as encourage mental health maintenance in those who are still with us.

In the case of inclement weather, the event will be hosted at the Michigan League Ballroom from 9AM - 2 PM.

WARNING: The aim of SSP is to raise awareness about suicide, connect students to mental health resources and inspire action for suicide prevention. However, the display and stories may trigger an adverse reaction in some individuals. If you have concerns about volunteering, attending, or begin experiencing adverse reactions at the event, please carefully reassess being a volunteer. While you are at SSP, please stop reading and attending the display immediately and talk to your support team, go to the Counselor on Duty at CAPS from 12:00pm - 6:00pm, or call the suicide hotline number at 1-800-273-8255.
