Live Hannah’s Hope Mission

Live Hannah’s Hope exists to empower youth and reduce suicide through research, education, awareness, and advocacy.

Advocacy

The squeaky wheel gets the grease. We squeak effectively for you.

Awareness

Dispels ignorance, offers the hope for change, and creates community.

Education

Knowledge opens the front door for change.

Research

What works? What’s new? What’s next? How do we get there?

About Hannah’s Story

Live Hannah’s Hope was created by her mother, Laura Warburton, and is dedicated to helping youth to live the life Hannah so desperately wanted but couldn’t because she couldn’t figure out how to stop her pain. She hid her pain instead of reaching out to her friends for help. She was embarrassed and ashamed. #SayNoToShame.

This site is full of possible solutions. Some of these solutions have already helped many children and adults overcome the temporary pain that too often drives one to suicide. We also have wonderful programs like the Hannah Warburton Resilience Award. We have resources for anyone who is touched by suicide.

We don’t live by ‘what ifs’. It’s impossible to find peace there. Instead, we choose to live by the concept of ‘because of’. Here, we learn from Hannah’s tragic death with hope that others will live through their pain and find joy and peace in this amazing life.

Why?!

Laura Warburton | May 30, 2020

Why did they choose to die?

If He Dies…

Laura Warburton | Nov 22, 2019

Got a desperate message last night from a person that helped me after Hannah’s suicide. Her adult child has been threatening suicide for a long time and last night it […]

Blame!

Laura Warburton | Oct 6, 2019

Do I blame someone, anyone for Hannah’s suicide? If we blame one person for anyone’s suicide, then it opens the door to blame… across the board. NO! NO! NO! NO! […]

We are Mutants

Laura Warburton | Aug 28, 2019

Every single person I've met dealing with suicide ideation, deals with this.

A Gift

Laura Warburton | Aug 19, 2019

My son was frustrated with me. Could I listen? Could I find truth in his words?

Who’s Your Lighthouse?

Laura Warburton | Aug 3, 2019

If you can't see the end of your pain, someone else probably can. Reach out!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can i put the idea of suicide in someone's head by mentioning it?

No. 

No one can stop a suicide, it is inevitable.
If people in crisis get the help and support they need, there’s a good chance they wont feel suicidal again.
Confronting a person about suicide will only make them angry and increase the risk of suicide.

Asking someone directly about suicidal intent LOWERS anxiety, opens up communication and lowers the risk of an impulsive act. 

Only experts can prevent suicide.

Suicide prevention is everybody’s business, and anyone can help prevent the tragedy of suicide.

Suicidal people keep their plans to themselves.

Most suicidal people communicate their intent sometime during the week preceding their attempt.

Those who talk about it only want attention.

This is perhaps the most dangerous belief. Those who threaten, NEED the help. Take all signs seriously! Be brave enough to ask someone if they are thinking about suicide and when they say yes, be kind, listen, and help by getting others involved such as a school counselor, 988, SafeUt, a parent, or religious leader.

Philippians 4:13 “I can do all things through Ch Philippians 4:13
“I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.”
Not some things. Not maybe. Not this or that thing. Not just service. Not just money. Not just church activities. Not just the easy or the hard. ALL THINGS! DO ALL THINGS....how? Through Christ. Christ is a title, a role, a Divine appointment. 
This scripture came from Paul while he was in prison. Paul is my favorite NT Apostle. He was a convert. He was a pharasee and was in favor of persecuting, killing Jesus, The Christ. After His ascension and return to earth, Jesus walked with the unknowing, still rebellious Paul. Once he recognized His Savior, He immediately changed paths. He faced many challenges as a disciple. He understood by experience that he could do ALL things when he partnered with Jesus the Christ. 
For me, this scripture reminds me to never leave Christ out of the equation.
